Q: What is an intake session with Beyond The Clouds?

Q: How long does the intake sessions take?

A: The initial intake sessions usually takes around 1.5-2 hrs. Which includes meetings with parents and observation of the child at home. If your child goes to school or preschool, we will run another assessment in that setting, which will support the information needed in the function and development assessment from all settings.

Q: Do I need to prepare anything for the intake session?

A: You don’t have to prepare much, but if you have reports from other professionals such as speech therapy, OT, or psychology, it’s helpful to have them handy. If you don’t have them that’s ok we will conduct our own assessments when needed.

A: Yes, the intake sessions usually is billed in line with the NDIS price guide and can be claimed from your child’s plan under relevant categories such as capacity building or core supports.
