We take care of it all for you!
Choose accessible accommodation in Perth from basic to complex disability needs. Short term (STA), Medium term (MTA) and Respite Accessible Accommodation – from sourcing, quoting, securing your reservation and payments. Each property/ disability housing is extensively audited for its accessibility.
Accessibility in a home is generally achieved through architectural intervention. Still, certain accessibility features such as modified furniture, shelves and cupboards, or even electronic devices in the home can bring ease in disabled living. The nature and extent of a person’s disability decide whether a home is accessible enough.
A disabled-friendly home enables an individual to do what they desire as independently as possible.
Some basic attributes of an accessible home are:
- Easily accessible building entrances and exits.
- Doors that wheelchair-bound individuals can use effectively.
- Light switches, electrical outlets and thermostats at places that are easily reachable.
- Accessible kitchens and bathrooms with low countertops and grab rails.
- The basin should be at a low height with appropriate knee and floor clearance for wheelchair users.
- Shower cubicles should have wide and high enough seats to facilitate easy transfer by wheelchair users as well as grab rails for easy gripping.
- Shower doors should preferably be of a sliding type. Locks or latches should be openable from the outside in the case of an emergency.
- Motion detector lights can be used for individuals who have trouble accessing light switches.
- There should be enough room for easy movement of wheelchairs around all furniture pieces.
- The closets and drawers must be designed keeping in mind the requirements with D-ring pull handles and lightweight drawers.
- A wheelchair docking station next to the bed can help keep it steady as the user transfers to the bed.
