If you require a medical adaptation(s) to be carried out to your home this may be made in a number of ways.

Enquiries can be made by:

  • the person requesting adaptations to their home or a member of their family;
  • healthcare professionals (including GPs and hospital staff);
  • the Department of Health and Social Care or home carer;
