Department of Veterans’ Affairs HomeFront program What is the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) HomeFront program? Eligible veterans are entitled to a free annual HomeFront assessment, usually by a qualified occupational therapist, who will identify fall and accident hazards in and around the home. Following the home assessment, and with the veterans consent, recommended safety modifications can be made in the home by qualified trades people. The assessor will also provide information concerning other Community and Government services that may be of assistance. However, HomeFront does not provide assistance with garden maintenance, car services, or any aspect of home security. Cost DVA contributes a monetary subsidy once every twelve months toward the cost of those minor house modifications recommended by the HomeFront assessor. Once the subsidy has been reached the veteran is then required to pay the difference in cost. Who is eligible? All Department of Veterans’ Affairs Gold and White card holders are eligible. How do I refer to the DVA HomeFront Program? Health professionals and Gold and White Card holders are invited to call 1800 801 945 to arrange a free HomeFront assessment. For more information, contact the DVA HomeFront line on 1800 801 945, or contact the DVA on 133 254 or 1800 555 254, or visit the website at www.dva.gov.au Department of Veterans’ Affairs Veterans’ Affairs Network Office Blackburn House 199 Grenfell St, Adelaide, 5000 www.dva.gov.au Ph: 1300 551 918 General Enquiries: 133 254 or 1800 555 254 page 14 Falls Prevention Service Directory 2012
