You need to be assessed by an appropriate
health professional/AT Practitioner from your local area (Physiotherapist, Occupational
Therapist, or similar) who will help you determine the most suitable equipment
or modification needed. This includes an assessment of whether you or your
carer can safely use the equipment.
Your health professional/AT Practitioner will
complete the online application form and submit it with any supporting
documents to SWEP on your behalf.
Once your application has been
processed SWEP will contact you to let you know what happens next. Refurbished
AT equipment is provided where possible. If refurbished equipment or funds are
not available immediately the application may need to go on a waiting list.
For more details, please see our Aids and Equipment FAQ
section.
