Healthy Home Assessments

We can help you remain safe, secure, warm, and independent in your own home.

Our Free Healthy Home Assessments are tailored to you and your own home. We assess your home to see if any home adaptations or repairs can be made to improve your health, safety and wellbeing.

We look at these broad areas:

  • Safe home
  • Secure home
  • Warm home
  • Independent home

We will provide advice and guidance on what steps you may wish to take to improve the health of your home and where appropriate advise or refer you, with your consent, to other organisations that may be able to help.

  • Who carries out the assessment?

    Our Free Healthy Home Assessment is carried out by a friendly, experienced and trusted caseworker. The assessment typically takes around 2 hours.

  • What does the assessment entail?

    During the assessment, our caseworker will take the time to fully understand your needs along with any concerns or worries you have about your home. They will also carry-out a room-by-room assessment highlighting any risks and consider how they can be best resolved.

  • What happens after the assessment?

    Following the assessment, we will provide advice and guidance on what steps you may wish to take to improve the health of your home. This will often result in a referral to one of our other services such as our Handyperson Service. Where appropriate and only with your consent we will also advise or refer you to other organisations that may be able to help.
