Aged Care
Home Maintenance & Repairs

We can support you with requests for assistive technology and home modifications through your Support at Home funding, with a team experienced and knowledgeable in this support.

Have a safer, more manageable home that suits your needs

Your home should work for you, not against you. As needs change, small adjustments can make everyday tasks safer and more manageable.

Our team helps organise home modifications for the elderly, guiding you through what’s possible and how to access support through your funding. From planning through to installation, the focus stays on ensuring your living space is safe and free of hazards.

What’s included with Home Maintenance Support?

Home modification support covers a range of services that improve safety, accessibility and ease of movement within your home.

Assessing home repair needs

We review your home environment and identify areas where changes can improve safety, access and day-to-day usability, based on how you move through your space.

Coordinating installation of modifications

Our team organises the required works and liaises with qualified trades and suppliers to help complete home modifications that support accessibility and suit your needs.

Providing ongoing maintenance support

Regular upkeep and minor repairs can be arranged to keep your home and garden in good condition and prevent small issues from becoming larger problems.

How Can I Access Home Maintenance and Repairs For Elderly Individuals?

Home modifications are arranged based on your living environment and the type of changes required.

Step 1

Start with your home setup

Talk us through your current space and the areas that feel difficult or unsafe.

Step 2

Review what needs to change

We will arrange for a qualified professional, such as an OT, to visit your home and identify practical adjustments that can improve access and comfort.

Step 3

Organise the work

We coordinate the modifications and any required services, including timing and scope, if included as an assessed need in your care plan.

Step 4

Put support in place

Once completed, your home is set up to better support your routine, with maintenance available if needed.

Who Might Benefit From Home Maintenance and Repairs?

Home modifications are suitable for anyone whose living space no longer supports their daily routine.

Changes such as handrails, along with assistive technology like mobility aids or support equipment, can make spaces like bathrooms, entrances or kitchens easier to use.

Accessibility home modifications can improve movement throughout the home, while assistive technology can support safer transfers, navigation and day-to-day tasks.

Early adjustments, combined with the right assistive technology, can support independence over time and reduce the need for more complex changes later.
