Yes. Occupational therapists are qualified to do home safety inspections for a disabled client. Some home care companies also offer inspections. Right at Home, for example, includes an inspection for free when they come to your house for an initial home visit to learn what services are needed. Other companies specialize in home inspections, but their availability will vary depending on your location.
However, the easiest way to ensure your loved one’s home is safe may be to check it yourself. Many organizations offer home safety checklists, including Right at Home and Caring.com.
