At home and in the bathroom
Alarms and bathroom equipment
Personal alarms, rails, shower chairs, over-toilet frames, toilet raisers and bathroom access considered together with how the person completes the task.
Occupational Therapy
Equipment questions start with an OT assessment, not a product.
For people, families and referrers considering alarms, walkers, bathroom equipment, pressure-care equipment, electric beds and chairs, or scooters. An occupational therapist assesses the person, task and environment, then prescribes or recommends what fits. Avanti confirms service, location and funding fit when you enquire.
Asking doesn't commit you to anything.

Occupational Therapy team
Ask the OT team about OT Equipment and Assistive Technology Assessments.
Clinician, location and appointment setting are matched after the team reviews the enquiry. No individual clinician or location is promised from this page.
Who this is for
People, families and referrers considering equipment or assistive technology for daily living.
We confirm whether it is the right service, which funding may apply, where sessions can happen, and what to do next.
- Clinician-led assessment of the person, task and environment
- Prescription or recommendation matched to the equipment question
- Service, location and funding fit confirmed on enquiry
Assessment scope
One assessment, matched to the equipment question.
An OT assessment looks at the person, the task and the environment together before anything is prescribed or recommended. This is a clinical assessment pathway, not a general product-shopping page.
Moving around and resting
Walkers, scooters and pressure care
Walkers, scooters, pressure-care equipment, and electric beds and chairs assessed against the person’s movement, transfers and daily routine.
A specific product or position is not recommended from a web enquiry alone. Share the equipment question and the team confirms whether an OT assessment fits.
What to send first
What to have ready when you call.
Share the equipment question, current living situation, suburb, referral or funding details, and whether similar equipment has been trialled before.
- The equipment question and what has changed
- Living situation, suburb and who is enquiring
- Referral or funding details and any prior equipment trials
