Adapting

Adapting your home to suit the needs of a disabled or older person is a potentially costly

business, particularly if structural changes are necessary. There are a number of grants available for this purpose: If you have a medical card or a long term illness card, you may be entitled to get essential items of equipment free of charge. First, you must be assessed by a relevant professional, such as an occupational therapist or a physiotherapist.

If you need improvements and adaptations to your home to help you continue to live independently there, you can ask the social services department of your local council to do an assessment of your home. Usually, an occupational therapist will assess what adaptations are appropriate to meet your needs or the needs of a disabled person who lives in your home. If they agree that you need adaptations to your home, you will be awarded a Disabled Facilities Grant.
