“Because your first year as a therapist shouldn’t feel like you’re on your own.
Support • Structure • Continuity
The Reality of Community Service.
Every year, hundreds of newly qualified therapists begin their community service year full of passion and purpose. But many face the same struggles:
• No Supervision or Mentorship Many hospitals and clinics lack senior therapists or Heads of Department to support young Community Service therapists
• Limited Training Young therapists must navigate complex caseloads alone, often without guidance or supervision straight out of varsity and with not much experience
• No Formal Handover One therapist leaves, another arrives, and patient goals and treatment history are lost resulting in poor carry over and consistency with therapy goals and treatment plans
• No Golden Standard on How to Record Notes Lots of notes, plans, and goals yet no formal training on how to records notes and capture information. Poor understanding of structures and poor access to be able to share notes with Clients
• Limited Contact Time with Patients Most Patients only attend therapy once a month due to lack of time and resources. Therapy once a month is not enough, as you can’t achieve much in a 45 minute session once a month. Lack of contact time is demotivating for the therapist, patient and client
“The heart to help is there, but the system makes it hard.”

Easily created your treatment plan on SpecialT after identifying your patient’s difficulties and goals.
“After being in community service myself, I know how hard it is to be placed in a rural environment with little to no support. Therapists are often on their own without supervision or guidance. You’re newly qualified with limited treatment ideas and little knowledge of real-world documentation. We created SpecialT to support therapists with practical tools—giving them exercises, structure, and a clear framework for record-keeping”
