Functional Capacity Assessment Brisbane

Accepting new referrals for Functional Capacity Assessments across Brisbane, Logan and Ipswich.

Good Days Health provides Functional Capacity Assessments for NDIS participants across Brisbane, Logan and Ipswich.

An FCA looks at how a person manages everyday activities, where support is needed and what recommendations may help improve safety, independence and participation.

Our reports provide clear, practical evidence to support NDIS plan reviews, funding decisions and future support recommendations.

A Simple Guide for NDIS Participants and Support Coordinators

If you're working with the NDIS, you've probably heard the term “Functional Capacity Assessment” or FCA. But what exactly is it - and who needs one?

At Good Days Health, we deliver FCAs across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, and the Gold Coast for participants aged 9 - 65. Here’s what you need to know.

What is a Functional Capacity Assessment? A Functional Capacity Assessment is an occupational therapy report that helps the NDIS understand what supports you need to live your life.

It covers:

  • What you can and can’t do day to day

  • How your disability impacts your function

  • What support or equipment may help

An FCA is often used:

  • During plan reviews

  • When your needs change

  • To support applications for additional funding

What’s Included in the Report? Our FCAs include:

  • A clear summary of daily living abilities

  • OT recommendations for supports, therapies, or assistive tech

  • Evidence-based rationale tied to NDIS language and goals

All reports are written with plan managers and NDIS reviewers in mind - concise, structured, and ready for submission.

Who is it For? We work with:

  • Adults and teens (9 - 65)

  • NDIS participants with physical or psychosocial disabilities

  • Clients seeking support to build independence, improve function, or justify funding

We also work closely with support coordinators, GPs, and allied health teams to streamline the process.

What Happens After I Book? You or your coordinator will:

  • Fill out a referral form

  • We'll contact you within 1 business day to book in time for the assessment

  • An OT will visit you at home (or via telehealth)

  • You’ll receive a detailed FCA report in the agreed timeframe
