The Summer Foundation and La Trobe University has conducted national surveys of people with mobility impairment and occupational therapists (OTs) about housing accessibility features.
The studies involved an online survey to understand the importance of accessibility features in new Australia housing.
People with mobility impairment (including seniors and people with a mobility-related disability) and OTs who conduct home visits pre-hospital discharge or to assess the suitability of homes for seniors wanting to age in place participated in the studies.
