Home modifications encompass personalized alterations made to your residence, facilitating your access and utilization of different areas within your household. These modifications can range from minor adjustments, like widening doorways, to more intricate changes affecting multiple sections of your home. For instance, combining your bathroom and toilet might be necessary to create sufficient space for using equipment such as hoists or shower chairs. Home modifications become essential if you encounter safety concerns, mobility challenges, or obstacles in utilizing specific rooms or pursuing your goals due to your disability. Moreover, these alterations can extend to accommodate the safety of your caregivers.
In addition to home modifications, we also offer support for home adaptations and assistive technology. This includes funding for equipment like grab rails, accessible tapware, and portable ramps, which are regarded as low-cost assistive technology aids. These recommendations, often suggested by occupational therapists, can be readily acquired from retail stores such as hardware shops and can be installed by accredited tradespeople.
