If you meet the criteria for a home assessment, we may visit your home to establish how you move around it and make some recommendations for adaptations and equipment that can help you.

 This could include:

• Getting in and out of the house – grab rails, steps, low threshold doors
• In the lounge – raising your sofa height to make sitting easier, suppling new chairs such as high back or rise and recliners and providing cushions to prevent pressure sores
• In the bathroom – supplying shower chairs or stools, raised toilet seats or toilet frames, grab rails or making onward referrals on for walk-in showers and wet rooms
• In the kitchen – supplying stools to sit on to make activities easier, practising tasks to help improve everyday activities such as making food and drinks
• In the bed room – providing special beds, mattresses, bed rails, commodes and practising getting in and out of bed
