Equipment faulty or no longer needed

Occupational Therapy service

Any equipment from the Fife Equipment Loan Store will have a label on it. If you no longer need it, it must be returned.

If your equipment is faulty or broken, you can contact the Fife Equipment Store for a replacement.

Staff may advise you to ask for a new assessment if:

  • there are concerns about the suitability of a replacement
  • they don’t have a similar item available

Changes to your weight or body shape may also affect your ability to safely use your equipment. You should stop using it and request a new assessment.

Information on how to return equipment can be found on the Fife Equipment Loan Store page.
