Mmass manual manual#
These new categories will support the current MASS eligibility requirements for “The most basic mobility item which meets the applicants needs for seating, mobility and functional activities to be requested”.įunding for these basic manual and power wheelchair categories is on a trial basis only. This trial introduces a new range of basic manual and power wheelchair options for provision as per the clinical criteria noted in the Basic Mobility Aids Trial Guidelines (PDF 220 kB), which is supplementary to the Application Guidelines for Mobility Aids (PDF 334 kB). MASS is conducting a trial, which aims to address this issue by increasing available options for prescribers when applying for mobility aids (manual and power wheelchair) required for effective mobility to maintain independence, to assist carer’s in managing clients mobility needs at home and prevent premature hospital admission. MASS recognises that increased frailty and declining functional ability impact directly on an individual’s health, wellbeing, comfort, and places them at significant risk of avoidable/premature hospital admission. Once a suitable device has been selected, prescribers work with the client to complete and submit the MASS 20 DLA/MOB - Daily Living Aids and Mobility Equipment Application Form (PDF 1650 kB) and the Application Form specific to the type of device.
Prescribers can access MASS stock equipment for a maximum two week trial if they intend to prescribe the aid for an eligible client. Prescribers conduct specialist assessments to determine the aids and equipment needs of clients. Specific eligibility, application and documentation requirements are provided in the MASS General Guidelines (PDF 426 kB) and application guidelines relevant to the type of aid. In rural and remote areas, a registered nurse can prescribe (with designated specialist endorsement). Occupational therapists, physiotherapists and rehabilitation engineers are eligible to prescribe.
