BCA’s Accredited Exercise Physiology Program has been specifically designed to help individuals of all ages. Sessions are delivered from our fully equipped and friendly Burdekin Community Rehabilitation Centre located at 12A Chippendale Street, Ayr.
Our Accredited Exercise Physiologists (AEPs) supervise all AEP Program participants and provide best practice exercise prescription to ensure that everyone performs exercises that are safe and appropriate for their goals and health conditions. Sessions are delivered one-on-one and face to face.
Our AEPs specialise in helping people to manage a chronic disease or injury, provide post-surgery rehabilitation support, recover from a cardiac or cancer event, improve strength and mobility, reduce cholesterol, manage or improve arthritis and joint pain, and maintain or reduce body weight.
There are several ways you may be able to access AEP Program services, including through a Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDM), the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) for Gold and White card holders, the Home Care Packages Program (HCP), the Support at Home Program (SaH) which is expected to commence on 1 November 2025, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), a Private Health Fund, or by paying a private fee for service.
If you are accessing the program through a CDM or DVA, please speak with your GP. For Aged Care Packages or NDIS, please speak with your service provider or contact BCRH if you are self-managing your Package or Plan. For Private Health Fund enquiries, please speak with your Fund, and for private fee-for-service options, please contact BCRH directly.
For information, please contact the Burdekin Centre for Rural Health (BCRH) located at 12A Chippendale Street, Ayr.
