Home modifications and accessibility

Home modifications and accessibility supports can make a home easier and safer to use. Needs can range from small changes to larger alterations, equipment recommendations and accessibility assessments. The best solution depends on the person, property, tenancy and future support needs.

What to include in a request

Share your suburb or postcode, the help you need, your preferred timing and any access, communication or cultural preferences. You do not need to share more personal information than is necessary to start a conversation.

Questions to ask

Ask whether an assessment is required, who coordinates recommendations, whether the provider has relevant qualifications, expected timeframes, ownership or landlord requirements, quotes, warranties and what funding may cover.

Take your time choosing

A provider should explain their services, costs and next steps clearly. Compare options where possible and ask for information in a format you can understand.
