Complex Home Modifications in 5 easy steps!
Why choose OT Services Group?
Our Complex Home Modification services & our practitioners have years of experience successfully gaining approval and funding for well-planned and carefully considered home modifications under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Our service has been pivotal in developing the area of Complex Home Modifications in WA, having provided minor and major complex home modifications over the past 40 years and under the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA). We also assisted in initially developing the Complex Home Modifications service at Fiona Stanley Hospital (in 2014) and were selected as one of the few initial Complex Home Modification providers for NDIS during it's trial implementation in WA in 2015.
How do we help?The process takes time and requires close collaboration between our OT, yourself, and the Project Manager. The success of the application is largely dependent on the information put forward & our Complex Home Modification Assessors (CHMA) have a detailed understanding of the NDIS Guidelines and requirements, as well as the Australian Standards. Our CHMAs will guide you through the process and help you understand each step, ensuring the process is timely and stress free, & a high standard of work completed.
