Equipment for your home

If you have problems completing daily living activities safely and independently, there are many different types of specially designed equipment to make looking after yourself easier.

Simple equipment

Small pieces of equipment such as perching stools and raised toilet seats can make daily living tasks much easier to manage.

You can also:

  • request an assessment and if you are eligible to receive equipment you will receive a loan of equipment from our community equipment provider, NRS Healthcare
