Dear Prescribers,
SWEP is pleased to announce that the new Home Modification model will commence this August. The new model is founded on a framework of Builders and Tradespeople that make up a panel of approved suppliers throughout Victoria. The Panel will provide Prescribers with the opportunity to identify which Builders and Tradespeople operate in the same location as Consumers. Just like the current service, there will be no expectations that Prescribers will have to determine the structural integrity of the home that is being modified as this is the role of Builders, Draftspersons and Architects. The new model will provide greater capacity for Prescribers to address the functional and clinical needs of Consumers in relation to their home environment.
To assist Prescribers, SWEP will be introducing several short introductory videos of the model which will complement the suite of online resources that include:

If you have any questions about the new model, please feel free to telephone Kerry Etchell on 03 5333 8116 or Nick Grakini on 03 5333 8128.
