Building Modular Homes for All Building Accessibility.

Modular home solutions refer to customizable housing options constructed using prefabricated modules or components. These homes are designed to be adaptable to the needs of individuals with disabilities, providing accessibility features and flexibility in layout and design.

Yes, in certain circumstances, NDIS funding can be used to cover the cost of purchasing or modifying a modular home to meet the specific needs of the participant. This may include funding for accessibility features, modifications, or the purchase of specialized equipment.

NDIS funding can be used to make a wide range of modifications to a modular home, including installing ramps, handrails, accessible bathroom fixtures, widened doorways, and other accessibility features. Funding may also cover the cost of adapting the layout or design of the home to accommodate the participant's needs.

An assessment by an occupational therapist or other qualified professional can help determine if a modular home solution is suitable for your needs. They will assess your functional abilities, mobility requirements, and living preferences to recommend appropriate housing options.

NDIS funding can cover reasonable and necessary supports related to the ongoing maintenance and support of a participant's home, including repairs, maintenance, and assistance with household tasks. However, funding eligibility will depend on the participant's individual circumstances and support needs.

To access NDIS funding for a modular home solution, you will need to have an approved NDIS plan that includes funding for housing or home modifications. You may also need to provide supporting documentation, such as quotes, assessments, and recommendations from qualified professionals.
