What is assistive technology?

Assistive technology is equipment or software that helps a person complete tasks, communicate or control their environment more independently.

It can be simple or integrated

A single switch, adapted mouse or mounting bracket may solve one barrier. A wider system may combine access, communication, doors, lighting, entertainment and support.

The outcome comes first

The most advanced product is not automatically the best choice. Useful technology fits the person, environment, supporters, budget and maintenance available.

Assessment reduces guesswork

An assessment can explore access methods, demonstrate options and identify compatibility before equipment is specified.
