Services for people with disabilities

Mobility aids, rehabilitation and services helping in independent living are available to people with disabilities. Kela can provide interpreter services for people with hearing, vision and hearing or speech impairment. Many of the services are jointly provided by wellbeing services counties and non-governmental organisations.

Informal carers of disabled people may receive support and other assistance from wellbeing services counties. In the guide As an informal carer for a loved one you can read more about becoming an informal carer and the financial support and other available help for informal carers.
