We are the Housing Occupational Therapy specialists. Through our ‘one-stop shop’ approach we provide everything from expert witness reports to property search, design, sourcing of equipment and manual handling training. Working with case managers and lawyers across the UK and beyond we offer your clients a full service, supporting their needs at every stage of their journey. Our Occupational Therapists support individuals with a range of conditions, from catastrophic injuries or medical conditions to relatively minor needs. Design for Independence specialises in empowering individuals to function in, and have control over, their environment. Our unique approach allows us to interpret complex medical and care needs into appropriate layouts and use of space. By working with us you can be sure that your client receives the support they need to live as independently as possible. At Design for Independence we never forget that a home is a home – we strive to create homes that clients can be proud of, not a clinical environment. Our occupational therapy team has up-to-date knowledge of the latest equipment, furniture and fittings for assistive living, including assistive technology. We can save clients substantial amounts of money by ensuring they purchase only the equipment they need. Additionally, we can help you access free of charge provision from the local authority. We work with whole properties or individual rooms and can manage small internal projects. This includes liaising with contract administrators and local authorities on your behalf. We can recommend builders, architects and other relevant construction professionals, such as project managers and contract administrators. This ensures you work with the right people, and that the project can keep moving forward. We work in partnership with all members of the team until the satisfactory completion of the project. 01799 588056 info@designforindependence.co.uk
