Independence, safety and accessibility in the home
As your circumstances change, you may need to adapt your home to suit your needs. Changes to your home may include simple modifications (such as grab rails) through to more complex modifications, such as ramps, to improve access into and within your home.
How we support you
To maintain your independence so you can continue to live and move safely about your house, Catholic Community Services can provide home modification changes to your home. Examples of home modifications could include bathroom redesign, kitchen redesign, widening doorways and passages, grab rails in the shower and handrails next to steps.
An Occupational Therapy assessment is required in order for you to receive a home modifications service. In addition, your carer may also be able to receive home modifications services if you also spend a significant amount of time at their home.
