Aged Care Home Modifications

Welcome to our Aged Care Modifications Page

Our services also include aged care modifications – because everyone deserves to feel safe and secure in the place they call home.

We understand that navigating mobility and accessibility challenges can be upsetting and overwhelming – especially if you or a loved one have experienced, or come close to, a fall or accident.

Sometimes, just a few thoughtful adjustments around the house such as installing grab rails or ramps, widening doorways, or swapping out gas stoves can make a world of difference, significantly enhancing the day-to-day safety and independence of you or your loved ones.

Our caring team can liaise with you / your family directly, or work with an occupational therapist to assess individual needs and priorities. By gaining an understanding of the types of services or support required, Perth TLC Group can tailor solutions to make life a little easier.

Some common aged care modifications include:

Provide tailored safety grab rails and handrails, and add ramps for easier entry, including small ramps for door thresholds and larger ramps for significant level changes

Enhance bathroom safety with slip prevention solutions, glass shower screen replacement, shower hob modifications, installations of hand showers, mixer taps, toilet safety rails, and devices to limit hot water temperature

Further bathroom modifications include custom vanities, hand showers, raised toilet suites, updated electricals, and integrated safety grab rails

We can also replace gas stoves, rectify uneven paving, improve door access, and modify kitchen and bathroom fixtures, including adding drawers and washing machine risers

Lowering the position of door knobs so that you can reach them

Improve garden layouts for easy access for a wheelchair, walker or frame

Widening doorways for easy access for a wheelchair, walker or frame

Adding a bathroom or bedroom downstairs if you can no longer move easily up your stairs

Whether you’re planning ahead for future needs, or seeking to adapt a loved one’s home for improved mobility and accessibility, we work closely with clients, their families, and occupational therapists to achieve the best outcomes.

Reach out to Perth TLC Group to explore what home modifications might be needed to enhance your safety and independence – both at home and in your community. After all, it’s not just us who need a little TLC as we get older; our homes do too!
