Understanding Alberta’s RAMP Program: Enhancing Accessibility for Seniors and Individuals with Mobility Challenges
For Albertans living with mobility limitations, independence at home can be significantly improved through thoughtful accessibility upgrades. The Residential Access Modification Program (RAMP) offers financial assistance to help individuals adapt their homes for safer, more accessible living.
What Is the Alberta RAMP Program?
RAMP is a government-funded grant (not a loan) that helps cover the cost of accessibility-related modifications. The program supports Alberta residents who have permanent mobility impairments requiring the use of mobility aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, or canes.
Common RAMP-eligible bathroom and home modifications include:
♿ Wheelchair-accessible bathroom conversions
🚿 Barrier-free or roll-in showers
🛁 Accessible bathtubs and transfer solutions
🚪 Door widening for mobility device passage
🪜 Grab bars and support hardware
♦️ Lever-style taps and easy-reach fixtures
↕️ Lowered countertops and cabinetry
At Edmonton Bath Products, we design and install bathroom solutions that support mobility, safety, and independent living.
Who Qualifies for RAMP?
To be considered for funding, applicants must:
♿ Have a long-term mobility impairment
🧑🦽 Use a wheelchair, walker, or other mobility aid
🏠 Own or rent a home in Alberta
📄 Provide medical or mobility documentation
Unlike SHARP, RAMP provides grant-based funding, meaning recipients do not have to repay the assistance.
