How would you feel if you had to depend on others for even the basic activities of your life? Requiring a full-time caregiver to assist you in moving in and out of the bathroom or navigating the kitchen. Well, for people with disability or mobility challenges, this becomes the normal way of living life. Some people slowly adapt to this lifestyle, but then there are those who want to restore their independence and dignity. At Memphis Care and Support, we understand the need for accessible spaces and are here to help those on the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) with our NDIS plumbing services. At Memphis Care and Support, we have a team of NDIS-registered plumbers who have the experience and expertise in altering and improving the accessibility in the space. Whether it’s the kitchen area or the bathrooms, our team delivers complete home modification and plumbing service.
What are the common plumbing services provided by an NDIS-registered plumber?
Installing Wheelchair-Friendly Showers
How does installing a wheelchair-friendly shower help? Thresholds can restrict smooth movement, and no grab bars can create difficulty for the user to maintain balance. That’s where NDIS plumbers install wheelchair-friendly showers to improve accessibility by featuring an open design. Strategic installation of grab bars improves balance, handheld showers offer desired flexibility, and foldable seats offer comfort at the time of use.
Practical Personal Hygiene Solution
Maintaining personal hygiene is another big challenge for the disabled. A practical solution that helps improve personal hygiene without any physical strain is the installation of bidet seats or douche hand sprayers. The majority of accessible bathrooms have these installed to reduce the need for assistance. Our NDIS-registered plumbers provide the installation of bidet seats and douche hand sprayers to improve personal hygiene.
Creating an Accessible Kitchen
Non-accessible kitchen creates a challenge for the disabled, restricting them from participating in or performing basic kitchen activities. However, an NDIS registered plumber helps address this concern by altering the kitchen. From lowering the kitchen sinks to removing the cabinet beneath, plumbers make the space accessible. With easy accessibility to the kitchen tops and sinks, a disabled member in the family gets the opportunity to equally participate in the kitchen activities and have a quality time with the family. Further, it also enhances safety, reducing the risk of injuries.
So, these are just a few of the many plumbing services that registered NDIS plumbers provide. At Memphis Care and Support, we aim to transform NDIS homes into safer and dependable spaces for the participants and seek to reduce the dependency of participants on the caregivers. If you also require NDIS plumbing services, contact us at Memphis Care and Support.
What is the benefit of installing a raised toilet or grab rails?
In NDIS homes, having an accessible bathroom with raised tools and grab rails isn’t a choice but a need. For members with disability, these facilities are crucial to minimize the risk of injury and accidents. Using these facilities, the user would no longer have to depend on the caregiver for assistance. Grab rails and a raised toilet enable the user to easily stand and sit, without worry about imbalance.
