Aged care
Aged Care Home Modifications on the Central Coast
Small, practical changes that make a familiar home easier and safer to keep living in.
Home modifications to help older residents stay at home for longer
Most homes on the Central Coast NSW, from older homes around Wyong to villas and units in The Entrance, were not built with mobility changes in mind. Steps, thresholds, bathrooms and high cupboards tend to be the first things that become difficult.
- Rails at entries, steps, hallways and in bathrooms
- Threshold and level changes made safer to cross
- Access ramps where the entry allows for one
- Storage brought within easier reach
- Door hardware and handles that are easier to operate
- Minor joinery changes that reduce bending and stretching
- Anti-slip treatments for suitable bathroom, shower and wet-area floors to help reduce the risk of falls
Working with families and care teams
We are happy to deal with family members, case managers, occupational therapists or care providers as well as the person living in the home. Where an assessment or scope has already been prepared, we review it, inspect the site where required and provide a written quotation.
Funding and service arrangements are confirmed by the customer or their provider before work begins. All work is subject to the approved scope, site conditions and the licences required for the work.
Talk to us about the home
Send through photos, any assessment or scope and what is becoming difficult, and we will review what can be done.

Frequently asked questions
What changes can help make a home easier to use?
Grab rails, threshold solutions, access ramps, easier-to-reach storage and suitable non-slip surface treatments can form part of a practical modification.
Can families and OTs enquire on someone’s behalf?
Yes. We work with the person living in the home, families, occupational therapists and care teams to understand the required work.
