Home Modifications
Occupational therapy assessments and reports for home modifications that improve safety, accessibility, and independence.
Why Home Modifications Matter
The home environment plays a central role in a participant's ability to live safely and independently. When physical or cognitive changes make everyday tasks more challenging, modifications to the home can reduce risk, improve accessibility, and support greater independence. Our occupational therapists assess the home environment and recommend modifications tailored to each participant's needs.

Safety Assessments and Reports
Our occupational therapists conduct in-home safety assessments to identify falls risks, accessibility barriers, and hazards. The resulting report provides prioritised recommendations with clinical reasoning, supporting participants and their families to make informed decisions about modifications.
