A successful partnership helps create a care space that feels like home

Wealden Rehab were delighted to work as part of a successful partnership in this adaptation. We installed GoLift ceiling hoist and track throughout a property when it was modified into a lifetime home for a profoundly disabled young adult.

Making plans

Working closely with the contractor and the OT, plans were proposed to provide XY track systems across 4 rooms in this new home. The tracks were installed late in the project, after the rooms had been decorated and completed in good time for the family to move into their house.

The OT helps tell the story....

I recently worked with Wealden Rehab to adapt a small bungalow into a lifetime home for a profoundly disabled young adult. Generally with projects like this, you end up with a care environment that has a stereotypical ‘disabled’ look. Working with Wealden Rehab, we achieved something rare – a functional, practical space that looks and feels like a proper home. 

The Site Manager, Case Manager, Occupational Therapist and Wealden Rehab consulted from the start of the project and throughout the build, ensuring installation processes ran smoothly and potential problems were identified early and avoided. The user will benefit from high-quality, modern and stylish equipment that effectively meets his needs. 

Care equipment design and installation is a specialist service, and there are many providers on the market. As an OT, it’s not always easy to choose. Having achieved such a high-quality result on this project – and having such confidence in Wealden Rehab’s timely and efficient aftersales services – I look forward to working with them in future.

As well as the comprehensive ceiling hoist system, we installed the Avero Motion care bath, which will support the clients current and future bathing needs.
