FAQs

Commonly asked questions

Why is Rehabilitation Counsellor insurance important?

According to the Australian Society of Rehabilitation Counsellors Ltd. (ASORC), Rehabilitation Counsellors are allied health professionals who help people deal with the impact of disability, health conditions and disadvantages and help them achieve a sense of inclusion and independence.

According to Allied Health Professions Australia, services provided by Rehabilitation Counsellors include assessing needs of clients, career counselling, setting goals, getting the client work ready, re-conditioning, adjusting to living with a disability or injury, workplace assessment and modifications. The job of a Rehabilitation Counsellor requires them to work very closely with the client and their families which implies an element of risk. Sometimes mistakes happen and things do not go according to plan.

If your client or their guardian holds you responsible, it could put everything you have worked for at risk.
