1. Mission

At Quality Life Enablement, my mission is to help older adults feel safer, stronger, and more confident in their everyday lives. I believe that everyone deserves to move through their home and community with confidence and a sense of control. Through personalised assessment and one‑to‑one rehabilitation, I work alongside each person to reduce falls risk, build confidence, and maintain engagement in meaningful daily activities. My approach is rooted in evidence‑based Occupational Therapy and always focuses on what matters most to the individual and their family.

2. Services Provided by Quality Life Enablement

Falls and Home Safety Assessments: A detailed assessment to identify falls risks and improve safety within the home environment.

3. Fees and Additional Charges

Session Fees:

Initial Assessments: £80 per hour and £20 per every additional 15 minutes.
Follow‑up rehabilitation sessions: £70 per hour

Reports:

Available on request. Pricing starts from £20 and depends on the level of detail required.

Mileage is charged at £0.45 per mile after the first 5 miles of the return journey from the therapist’s base.

4. Payment of Fees

Payment can be made in one of the following ways:

Debit or credit card immediately after the visit (via secure card reader)

Services may be withdrawn if payment remains outstanding.

5. Cancellation Policy

Missed or cancelled appointments, with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged at 100% of the session fee regardless of the reason.
