(a) Slip-resistant treatment & grab bars:
Flats with 1 toilet/bathroom
If you have done any of these items under EASE (Direct Application), the same item(s) will not be offered to you under HIP with EASE.
Flats with 2 toilets/bathrooms
If you have done these items under EASE (Direct Application) to one toilet/bathroom, you may opt for these items to the second toilet/bathroom, if applicable. You will be billed your share of the costs for these items to the second toilet/bathroom.
Ramps:
Single-step entrance
For flats with single-step entrance, if you have installed ramps under EASE (Direct Application), you will not be offered the item under HIP with EASE.
Multi-step entrance
For flats with multi-step entrance, you may still opt for the portable/customised ramp⁺ to be installed at the entrance, if you have not done so under EASE (Direct Application).
+ The portable/customised ramps are recommended for wheelchair users assisted by caregivers.
+ A conditional survey will be done to determine the type of ramp to be installed. Where technically feasible, the portable ramp will be offered as the default option.
The EASE improvement items done earlier will be retained or reinstated if they are affected by the HIP works, at no additional cost to you. The slip-resistant treatment and installation of grab bars are offered to a maximum of 2 toilets, regardless of flat type.
(b) A chemical is applied to the toilet/bathroom floor tiles to enhance the slip resistance. For EASE (Direct Application) and HIP with EASE where toilet upgrading is not chosen, the treatment is applied to the existing floor tiles. For HIP with EASE where both toilet upgrading and slip-resistant treatment are chosen, the treatment is applied after toilet upgrading, i.e. to the new floor tiles.
(c) The number of grab bars depends on the configuration of the toilet/bathroom. If the option of "to one toilet/bathroom and kitchen doorway" is chosen, up to 8/10 grab bars will be offered; if the option of "to two toilets/bathrooms and kitchen doorway" is chosen, 6 grab bars will be offered in addition to the 8/10 grab bars.
