Are you are looking to make modifications/adaptations to your home to improve its accessibility or to help maintain independence and increase safety? There are a couple of things that you need to consider.

There are grants available through the County Council which you may qualify for to help with payment for these works. Contact your local offices to get more details on this and qualification criteria. You may also choose to get the work done privately.

In both instances, it is essential to get an Occupational Therapy assessment and a report detailing the requirements and recommended specifications necessary. Use this report to get quotations from at least 2 contractors/suppliers. Not only will this ensure that you get value for money, it will ensure that the work completed matches your exact requirements.

If you wish to get more information and find an Occupational Therapist in your local area, please phone us on 01 908 1504 or go to our website; www.indu.care.
