About our Limited Registration Program

Our Limited Registration Program is designed to provide overseas-qualified practitioners and returning clinicians with the support, training, and supervision needed to practise confidently in Australia. The program is suitable for allied health professionals whose AHPRA registration has lapsed or who hold professional registration with an approved overseas regulatory body.

As part of our Limited Registration Program, participants receive:


  • A buddy shift with onsite induction and ongoing support
  • Additional mentoring from a team leader or senior clinician, tailored to individual needs
  • Shadow shift opportunities in residential aged care and community settings before commencing employment
  • Access to our structured professional development pathway through iLearn, including online learning modules and follow-up discussions
  • Flexible options to work across residential aged care and home care services


Working with Vivir provides an excellent foundation for developing your aged care and community health skills while progressing through a supported Limited Registration Program.

How the Limited Registration Program works

Our Limited Registration Program provides a structured pathway for overseas-qualified physiotherapists and occupational therapists to begin their allied health career in Australia. From the initial application and AHPRA registration process through to supervised practice and professional development, Vivir supports clinicians every step of the way. Participants are paired with experienced supervisors, receive tailored clinical guidance, and gain hands-on experience across aged care, home care, and disability settings while working towards meeting their registration requirements.

Pathway to general registration

The goal of our Limited Registration Program is to help clinicians successfully progress to general registration with AHPRA. Throughout the program, you'll receive ongoing supervision, mentoring, and regular feedback to support your professional development and ensure you meet registration requirements. As your experience and confidence grow, you'll have the opportunity to expand your clinical skills across a range of settings and build a long-term allied health career with Vivir Healthcare. Many clinicians continue their journey with us after obtaining general registration, accessing ongoing career development, leadership opportunities, and diverse clinical pathways.
