- To alert the Therapist if you are finding it difficult to complete home practice, or don’t feel that you fully understand what has been provided.
- To provide notice of cancellation before 9:00am the day before. We endeavour to send a reminder text 2 days before your appointment, however, responsibility remains with you to attend regardless of the reminder. In the event where appointments are not attended or cancelled with insufficient notice and/or cause, a cancellation fee will be enforced. Cancellation fees for community visits will account for all planned activities (e.g. direct session and travel time).
To understand that a result of cancelling or not attending sessions more than three times may result in the need to review the agreed therapy plan. Next Challenge Management reserves the right to review and possibly withdraw therapy appointment slots in this situation.
