Home modifications

Changing your home for the better

When it comes to helping people live safely and independently at home, home modifications are often the first step. Whether it’s installing a walk-in shower for easier access with a walker or adapting your bedroom for safer transfers, our team will work with you to ensure your home is safe, comfortable, and easy for you to navigate.

Home modifications need to be prescribed by a qualified health professional, but we can help by organising an assessment for you.

Common home modifications include:

  • Handrails and grab rails
  • Ramps for wheelchairs
  • Small and large bathroom modifications
  • Installing handheld showers
  • Lifts and lift chairs on stairs
  • Widening of doors
  • Kitchen adaptations
