Mobility for Independence
All Abilities provides service coordination for people with disabilities. For one individual, the installation of an overhead lift system in their bedroom helped to make daily living activities easier.
All Abilities Service Coordinator played an important role during the home modification process by helping the participant and family determine needs, obtain funding, and helped to select equipment and manage installation. The participant can now independently move safely throughout the home limiting the need of help from staff and family. All Abilities also helped the participant with van modifications for easier wheel chair access..
Thanks to the coordination of services provided by All Abilities, for this participant, life is now more accessible!
