Local support
How we support Blacktown
Blacktown is one of the largest and most diverse communities in Greater Sydney, with people of many languages and backgrounds. Let the team know if support in a language other than English would help so the appointment can be planned with that in mind.
The Marsden Park team supports Blacktown children with speech, language and occupational therapy needs, and adults with functional capacity assessments, positive behaviour support, assistive technology and home modification assessments.
Because Blacktown is a little further from the clinic, home and community visits, joint sessions and telehealth are used more often so that support stays consistent between appointments.
Getting to the clinic. The Marsden Park clinic is roughly twenty minutes from Blacktown by car via Richmond Road. Blacktown station is a major interchange on the Western line, and telehealth is available for anyone who prefers not to travel.
