Going Places Orientation & Mobility

At Going Places Orientation & Mobility we offer O&M assessment and training to both children and adults of all ages. Our developmental O&M services focus on children learning concepts about their world through exploration and play. We encourage children to have agency in the way they move by assisting families and care givers to set up regular routines that foster experiential learning and self-determination, as children work to achieve their goals. Our services to adults focus on using the discovery approach to O&M to enhance a learners conceptual understanding of the environment to build life long travel skills. We partner with your to individually tailor training programs around your goals, session frequency, current skill level and preferred learning/teaching style. We also offer accessibility training in the use of smartphones to increase your ability to connect with others and use these devices for increased independent travel. Programs are aimed to offer rewarding experiences to encourage increased independent travel and progression toward your goals. We believe O&M should be fun, challenging and engaging. Services are funded through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) from the Improved Daily Activity area of the plan.
