Home Care
Home modifications and maintenance
Make your home secure, safer and ready to meet your changing needs.
Modify your home to suit your changing needs
Small changes can make a big difference to how you live. Our home modification services are designed to help you modify your home to your needs - so you can stay independent for longer in your own home. Examples of home modifications may include:
- installing grab rails, hand rails and handheld showers
- modifying access to include ramps, step ramps, platform steps and paths
- stair lift installations
- complex bathroom modifications including minor plumbing, electrical and carpentry work, if it meets eligibility criteria.
Our home modification services are available in the Inner West, Western Sydney and the Nepean region for the Commonwealth Health Support Programme (CHSP) or across the Sydney Metro for Home Care Packages (HCP), National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) funded and fee-for-service works.
