Stay in your own chair, anchored on four-point tie-downs, from your front door to the destination door. Certified ramps and hoists, drivers held to the national wheelchair-restraint competency, and a vehicle reserved for your booking rather than dispatched from the nearest rank.
For passengers who need patience more than they need a ramp. A held booking, a driver who walks you to the door instead of the kerb, and PTSS processed on the spot, whether or not you travel seated in a wheelchair.
Transport that clears your plan manager first time. Self-managed and plan-managed participants handled, itemised to the line, with standing weekly bookings for work, study, therapy and day programmes in a wheelchair accessible vehicle with certified ramps and restraints.
Booked around the appointment time, not the traffic. Agreed meeting points at Sir Charles Gairdner, St John of God Subiaco and Midland, Joondalup Health Campus and Osborne Park Hospital, with your chair secured properly and a driver who waits when discharge runs late.
The same driver, the same time, every week, so getting to therapy stops being the hard part of therapy. Standing bookings to physiotherapy, occupational therapy, hydrotherapy and day programmes across Perth, set up once and never rebooked again.
Door through door, not kerb to kerb. An arm down the front steps, the shopping carried in, and a driver who has allowed enough time that nobody has to hurry, whether you use a walking frame or a powerchair.
OUR STORY
Rehabilitation Is a Course, Not an Appointment
Osborne Park Hospital provides stroke rehabilitation inpatient services alongside aged care and rehabilitation, and that shapes our work here more than any feature of the suburb itself. A rehabilitation programme is not one visit; it is a sequence that runs weekly or more often, sometimes for months, and its value depends entirely on attendance. Miss sessions and the recovery slows, which means unreliable transport does not merely inconvenience somebody, it materially affects how well they get. That is why almost all of our Osborne Park work is standing bookings rather than one-off fares, and why rehabilitation and therapy transport is the service most of these passengers actually need.
It also sets a different standard for the driver, because a passenger recovering from a stroke may need noticeably longer to transfer and belt in than they did a year ago, and being hurried through that week after week is demoralising in a way that is easy to underestimate. We hold bookings rather than squeezing them, which is the whole point. Call 0483 926 000.
HOW WE WORK IN Osborne Park
A Commercial Suburb With a Hospital in It
Osborne Park is not a conventional residential suburb and pretending otherwise leads to bad pickups. It is dominated by commercial and light-industrial premises, so a substantial share of the addresses we are asked to collect from are workplaces, day programmes, allied health rooms and business frontages rather than houses. Those streets are built for delivery vehicles and trade traffic: kerb ramps are scarcer, the traffic is heavier and slower to yield, and the space behind a parked vehicle that a rear ramp requires is frequently taken by another vehicle loading.
Setting a ramp down at a busy commercial frontage is a poor idea even when it is legal, so we nominate a car park or a quieter adjacent street instead, exactly as we do on Balcatta's industrial roads. The residential pockets that do exist here are of the same post-war and mid-century vintage as their City of Stirling neighbours, with stepped entries and crossovers poured for a family sedan. The hospital itself is the redeeming feature for everyone in the surrounding suburbs, since it puts medical appointment transport within a short, cheap, predictable run for Balcatta, Yokine, Dianella and Karrinyup rather than sending them across the city.
Why choose us in Osborne Park
Why Rehabilitation Passengers Stay With Us
Nothing exposes an unreliable operator faster than a booking that has to work forty times in a row. Your trip is held against a specific vehicle and driver rather than released into a dispatch pool, so the arrangement made at the start of a programme is still running at the end of it without renegotiation. Wherever leave and illness allow, the same driver takes a standing booking, because a driver who already knows your loading point and your pace makes a difficult morning ordinary. Every driver holds a current Western Australian passenger transport driver authorisation, an annual approval that requires a driver's licence held for at least three years plus ongoing police and justice conviction checks, and each is background-checked.
Where a wheelchair travels, drivers undergo special courses and trainings, which are reviewed and upgraded on a regular basis, and our vehicles carry certified ramp and hoist systems with four-point tie-downs so you stay in your own chair. Those hoists and ramps are treated by the Department of Transport as complex vehicle modifications requiring approval. Call 0483 926 000.
AREAS WE COVER IN Osborne Park
Where We Collect Across Osborne Park
Our Osborne Park work sorts into three kinds of address. At the hospital we use the outpatient and rehabilitation entrances rather than the busiest frontage, and for a course of treatment we settle that point at the first visit so every subsequent trip is identical. On the commercial and light-industrial streets, which make up most of the suburb, we nominate a car park or a quieter side street rather than loading at a frontage with trade traffic moving through it.
In the residential pockets, the mid-century housing brings the familiar stepped entries and narrow crossovers, and the loading point goes on file at the first booking. Because the hospital serves the whole of this part of the City of Stirling, most of our Osborne Park trips actually start in Balcatta, Yokine, Dianella or Karrinyup, and we also run aged care transport between the hospital and residential facilities across those suburbs. If your street sits on a boundary or you are collecting from a business address, call 0483 926 000 and we will sort the approach out in advance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know about our Wheelchair Accessible Transport In Osborne Park
What does transport to Osborne Park Hospital cost?
Most trips to Osborne Park come from the surrounding City of Stirling suburbs and are short, which is where the PTSS subsidy does its best work. A purple wheelchair card covers 75% of the fare up to a $35 subsidy per trip when you travel seated in your chair, and a yellow card covers 50% up to $25, applied by your driver at the end of the journey. From Balcatta, Yokine, Dianella or Karrinyup the subsidy usually leaves a small gap rather than a real fare. For a course of rehabilitation, that per-trip figure is worth working out once at the start so there are no surprises across a programme. Call 0483 926 000.
Can you take me to stroke rehabilitation every week for the whole programme?
A standing booking is exactly the right arrangement for this and it is how most of our Osborne Park rehabilitation passengers travel. You give us the day, the time and the destination once, and the slot is held for the length of the programme rather than being rebooked each week. Your access notes stay attached, so a driver already knows how long your transfer takes and where the safe loading point at your home is. If a session is cancelled or you are unwell, one call releases that week alone without losing the arrangement.
My transfers are slower since my stroke. Will the driver rush me?
No, and this is the specific thing rehabilitation passengers tell us they were most worried about. After a stroke, transfers, seating and belting often take considerably longer than they used to, and a driver who visibly hurries somebody through that makes the entire week harder than it needs to be. Because your booking is held rather than squeezed between other jobs, there is no pressure on the driver to shorten the loading sequence, which is fixed and does not get abbreviated for time. Where the roster allows, we send the same driver to a standing booking so the pace is already understood.
Can you collect from a workplace or a programme on a commercial street?
We can, and we will usually suggest a specific spot rather than the frontage itself. Osborne Park is dominated by commercial and light-industrial premises, and those streets carry heavy vehicles, have fewer kerb ramps and offer very little safe space behind a vehicle for a rear ramp to come down. If you attend a programme, work, or have an appointment at one of these addresses, tell us the exact street number and we will find a car park or a quieter adjacent street that works. It is a two-minute conversation at the first booking and then it is settled.
Do you cover Balcatta, Stirling, Herdsman and the nearby suburbs?
Osborne Park sits inside the City of Stirling with Balcatta, Karrinyup, Yokine and Dianella, all on our regular list, and because the hospital draws from all of them our vehicles run between these suburbs constantly. The published list is where we work most often rather than a boundary. If your street is nearby and not named on this site, one call resolves it. Call 0483 926 000.
Can I use NDIS funding for regular therapy trips to Osborne Park?
We invoice self-managed and plan-managed participants and itemise everything so a plan manager can process it without querying the detail. Transport funding sits in Core Supports under Support Category 02, at up to $1,784 a year at Level 1, $2,472 at Level 2 and $3,456 at Level 3, depending on your work, study and community access. Because therapy travel repeats, it is worth mapping the yearly cost against your funding level early rather than discovering the gap two-thirds of the way through. Whether a given trip is covered is a question for you and your plan manager, and we will not pretend otherwise.
