Assessments will take place either by eConsultation or in person in a variety of locations including our hubs in the North and South of the county, school, day centre or home.

When Will I Receive My Equipment?
Your equipment may be supplied directly from referral. Alternatively for service users requiring assessment you may receive the equipment directly at your clinic appointment or alternatively you will be allocated a handover appointment to set up your equipment to meet your needs.
