With an awareness of a portfolio of equipment, product information can be given to ensure you decide on equipment that will be suitable for your needs to increase your independence in a safe and appropriate way.
In addition, with over 25 years of experience in designing to meet people's needs, advice can be given about adapting your property to ensure that you are able to access and use all areas of your home. For example stair lifts, through floor lifts, graded floor level access showers, ramps, rails etc. This will enable you to make an informed choice as to how your needs can be appropriately met and help you avoid making expensive mistakes.
A written report will be provided detailing the assessment findings and making recommendations. Sketches and detailed specifications with measurements can be supplied.
