Physical Disability Service
Help for people with physical disabilities aged 18-64 years
The physical disability service provides services for people aged 18-65 who may need care support due to a physical impairment. The physical disability service may also be able to assist with a move into residential or nursing home care. Individuals will undergo both a financial and care need assessment through the social work team.
The Access Point Team also provides services for older people 65 years and over.
