Role of Accredited Exercise Physiologists

Accredited Exercise Physiologists (AEP) are university-qualified allied health professionals who prescribe, deliver, and adapt movement, physical activity, and exercise-based interventions to facilitate and optimise health status, function, recovery, and independence. This helps people participate in activities at home, school, work, and in the community.

 

AEPs provide services to people across the full health spectrum, healthy through to those at risk of developing a health condition, and people with health conditions, a disability, and aged related illnesses and conditions, including chronic, complex conditions.

 

AEPs apply evidence-based judgment and clinical reasoning to individuals, groups, and the broader community to:

  • Improve and maintain health status and function and support reablement
  • Prevent decline of health status
  • Prevent, treat, and manage health conditions (including diseases, disorders, traumas and injuries), including complex, chronic conditions
  • Screen, assess, and measure capacity and function for activities of daily living and work-related activities, and to inform interventions

Prescribe, deliver, adapt, and evaluate movement, physical activity, and exercise-based

interventions to:

  • Enhance and maintain function and quality of life
  • Facilitate recovery and promote reablement
  • Maximise independence
  • Educate and advise about health and well-being and how physical activity and exercise can improve health outcomes
  • Empower people to improve health outcomes, and self-manage health conditions
  • Coach and motivate to increase engagement and self-efficacy in treatment and physical activity, including addressing client preferences, needs, barriers, and goals

AEPs apply a person-centred approach to people of diverse backgrounds and populations and work collaboratively with clients and relevant others involved in supporting their health and well-being.

 

AEPs practise in a culturally safe and inclusive manner according to the principles of person-centred care and apply appropriate in-person and digital practices such as telehealth.
