Hi Terry,
At the moment no, I am planning for the work in September, regarding the hoists, my OT has stated that as long as they cost less than £1,000 then they would supply free. My OT would not refer me to Wheelchair Services said it was up to my GP, I rang MND Connect for advice about this and they said my OT is probably not the specialist OT who is able to refer so she was technically correct. I can still walk with aids and support as it is currently all in my left leg, but balance is my problem at the moment so planning all this in readiness, the frustration is all the red tape and post code lottery
