Aids and equipment to help you

For anyone with mobility problems, there are a number of services to help 

Community Care Occupational Therapy 

Community Occupational Therapists provide a service to people of all ages and their carers in Moray. This may involve assessment for services, advice on coping with the effects of illness or disability, the provision of equipment and adaptations to assist with daily living tasks.

If the Community Occupational Therapist suggests equipment may be beneficial to you, they will order this on your behalf from the equipment catalogue and it will be delivered and fitted through the Moray Joint Equipment Store.

Physiotherapy

Walking aids are provided by the NHS Grampian physiotherapy service. Contact the service on 01343 554340, or speak to your doctor or carer who will be able to advise you.

A companion for people who may require assistance whilst shopping is also available.
