Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024
This unit of competency supports the access consulting service of providing advice on renovations to private dwellings.
This unit specifies the competency required to work with people with disabilities, members of their family, and their carers to achieve appropriate building renovations to private dwellings (homes) to suit their needs. The unit focuses on ensuring the home environment is modified to suit the specific needs of the client, and where appropriate, the family and/or carers.
To achieve appropriate home renovations for clients, access consultants typically work in collaboration with professional construction and/or health personnel. To provide advice on renovations to private dwellings access consultants should, with the client's permission, obtain relevant construction and/or health professional reports relating to the design requirements of the client.
Access consultants will need to apply anthropometric, ergonomic and physiological principles in the performance of their role.
