Creating Accessible and Safe Living Environments

TASCare Services offers specialised support for Home Modifications, ensuring your home environment is safe, accessible, and perfectly suited to your specific disability and support needs. This NDIS service involves making structural changes to your existing residence to facilitate easier access, movement, and use of facilities. Our team in NSW coordinates the entire process, working with Registered Builders and Allied Health Professionals (like Occupational Therapists) to design and implement modifications that empower you to live independently and comfortably at home.

 

What’s Included with Home Modification Support?

Our coordinated support is tailored to simplify the complex modification process and commonly includes:

  • Occupational Therapy (OT) Assessment: Arranging and coordinating the initial assessment to determine necessary and reasonable modifications.
  • Design and Planning: Working with the OT and architects to develop detailed plans and specifications for the work.
  • Ramp and Rail Installation: Installing custom ramps, handrails, and grab rails for improved mobility and safety.
  • Bathroom Adaptations: Modifying bathrooms to include accessible showers (hob-less/walk-in), adjustable fittings, and accessible toilets.
  • Kitchen Redesign: Modifying bench heights, installing accessible storage, and making sink areas wheelchair-friendly.
  • Doorway and Hallway Widening: Structural changes to improve navigation and accessibility for wheelchairs or mobility aids.
  • Liaison with Builders: Obtaining quotes, managing contracts, and overseeing the quality and completion of the work by registered professionals.
  • Funding Management: Assisting with the application process to the NDIA for complex modifications and managing the funded budget.
  • Installation of Assistive Technology: Coordinating the installation of fixed items like automated door openers or lift systems.
  • Property Compliance Checks: Ensuring all modifications meet relevant safety standards, building codes, and NDIS requirements.
