Assistive Devices
Assistive devices are items that ease the strains of daily activities at home, at work, or at play. They include medical equipment, mobility aids, practical aids, and gadgets to suit many different needs.
These devices can help you improve your quality of life and maintain your sense of independence. There is also a safety factor to consider. Certain conditions that may occur with age, such as loss of vision, hearing, bone density, or balance can pose serious risks. For example, if you have a poor sense of balance, you face an increased risk of falling, which can result in injuries. However, you can reduce your risk of injury by using an appropriate assistive device, such as a cane or a walker.
