WORLDWIDE PLANNING · ADAPTATION ROADMAPS
Condition-specific home adaptation roadmaps
Explore home-planning questions for changing mobility, memory and support needs. Start with the person’s priorities and an individual assessment.

Plan early with the care team. Assessment, funding, permits and construction times vary; there is no universal renovation timetable or standard layout that fits every diagnosis.
A timeline for changing mobility
Use four planning stages to connect current tasks, a possible next stage, interim arrangements and reviews. Agree actions and review dates with the resident and care team.

For residents and families
Record the activities that matter most, current difficulties and changes you want to discuss. Involve the resident in decisions and agree a review date.
For contractors and design professionals
Use an assessed brief and the actual equipment dimensions. Confirm structural suitability, installation instructions and local requirements before specifying work.
