Home modification assessment
Assessment before recommendations
For older people around Cheltenham, Mentone, Highett, Moorabbin and Beaumaris, an OT home visit can examine the real bathroom, entrances, transfers and daily routes involved. Recommendations follow an OT assessment, with suitability, funding and responsibilities clarified before products or building work are arranged.
Rails, access and equipment questions
Bathroom rails, steps, doorways and equipment should be considered together with how the person completes the task. Recommendations are not made from a web enquiry alone.
Assessment before recommendations
Recommendations follow an OT assessment. Avanti does not build or install home modifications; the team clarifies the clinical next step and any funding context first.

Questions
Cheltenham Home Modifications questions
Yes. Include the address suburb and what is difficult at home. The Cheltenham team will confirm whether an in-home assessment is available and what funding or referral details are needed.
No. Avanti provides Occupational Therapy assessment and recommendations where appropriate. Building, installation and supplier work are separate and are discussed only after the assessment context is clear.
A rail question may require the person, task, movement and home environment to be assessed together. Avanti confirms whether an in-home assessment is appropriate before recommendations are made.
Start with an enquiry. Avanti will confirm the service, location, funding option, and whether an appointment or class is the right next step. Asking doesn't commit you to anything.
Many people use NDIS, a Medicare referral, DVA, WorkCover, aged-care funding or private funds. Which applies depends on your situation and the service - tell Avanti what you have and they'll confirm it with you.
Fees depend on the service and your funding pathway. Tell Avanti your funding type in the enquiry and they'll explain the relevant costs up front.
