LANCASTER, PENNSYLVANIA, UNITED STATES, August 6, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- OneWell Health Care is proud to announce its dedicated Home Modification Program1, aimed at enhancing the independence and quality of life for individuals with disabilities. Our mission is to create accessible living spaces that promote safety, comfort, and overall well-being. This client-centered program focuses on optimizing the functionality of living spaces according to our participants' unique abilities, ensuring they can live their lives with greater ease and independence.
Home Modification's Process:
1. Estimates: For modifications exceeding $1,000.00, three estimates are required. OneWell provides one estimate, while the family is responsible for obtaining the other two. This approach ensures a competitive and fair evaluation of costs.
2. Requirements: A letter of medical necessity from the participant's primary care physician (PCP) or an Occupational Therapy assessment is required, along with the three estimates, for submission to the Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) for review. This documentation ensures that the modifications are warranted and tailored to the participant's specific needs.
3. Completion: If OneWell is chosen to complete the modification, we supply all necessary materials and labor. Our team works diligently to complete the project to the highest standards. We then submit to ODP for reimbursement upon project completion, ensuring a seamless financial process for our clients.
Type of Home Modifications Provided by OneWell Health Care:
- Bathroom: Installation of adaptive bathtubs/showers, grab bars, fold-down shower chairs, handheld showers, adapted fixtures, raised toilets, and non-slip flooring. These modifications ensure that the bathroom is a safe and accessible space for all participants.
- Widening Doorways: Enhancing accessibility throughout the home by widening doorways, making it easier for individuals with mobility aids to navigate their living spaces.
- Kitchen: Lowering cabinets and countertops for wheelchair accessibility, installing accessible sinks/fixtures, accessible storage, and non-slip flooring. These changes make the kitchen a more functional and user-friendly space.
- Sensory Modifications: Adaptations for noise reduction, softened lighting, visual support, tactile adaptations, and temperature regulation. These modifications create a calming and comfortable environment, especially for individuals with sensory sensitivities.
- Modifications for Behavioral Concerns: Installing shatterproof windows and padding for walls to ensure a safe and secure environment for individuals with specific behavioral needs.
