2020 at Specialised Health

/ Behind the Scenes / By

2020 has been an interesting year, to say the least.

In Australia we had bushfires, hailstorms and a train derail, in NZ Mataura River burst its banks, and of course a global pandemic plagued all of us, particularly residents of NZ and Melbourne.

With stress on the economy and people’s livelihoods, we have all had to adapt. We have had new experiences, new opportunities and more time at home. All around the world, and locally we have seen beautiful examples of how humanity can reach out and come together and appreciate what we can often take for granted.

With 2021 here, we thought we would reflect on our Wins for 2020.

Fortunately for us, we were unknowingly prepared, having telehealth already a part of our service for rural claimants.

THANKYOU to all who trusted in us to continue offering our Specialised service supporting return to work and return to life.  And I’m sure, with the year that the world has had, the support from you, that we had the opportunity to embody, meant even more to your customer.

2020 @ Specialised Health

Telehealth, face to face, or a mixture of both, we’ve continued to see people with a variety of conditions: fractures and strains (60%), mental health and fatigue (21%), cancer (10%), heart diseases, lung diseases, multiple sclerosis, burns.
