LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Become familiar with the definitions of
Assistive Technology Devices and Services
See examples of an array of Assistive
Technologies that can support safely Aging in
Place
Consider how existing, new or emerging assistive

specific training to learn,
often customized
Mid: May cost
more, require
some training,
have special
design, often
need power
source
Low: Inexpensive,
easily made, easy
to learn, readily
available, easy to
replace/maintain

SAFETYSafety concerns are always part of the conversation about self care and independence. Assistive technologies can go a long way to reducing risks for the care recipient and the care giver.
Two areas of the home where AT can make them less dangerous are the kitchen and the bathroom areas.
