Assistive Technology
Overview
Aptiv offers specialized expertise to address your or your child or teen's assistive technology needs such as daily living, communication, mobility, hearing, and vision, among others. We take a person-centered approach, having your or your child or teen guide the process with what activities they would like to be able to do.

Recommendations may include:

- Identifying the needs of you or your child through various assessment tools.
- Recommending the best assistive technology to address your or your child's needs.
- Developing an implementation plan.
- Developing a structured support plan using data-based practices.
- Education and training those involved such as the individual's circle of support.
- Scheduling regular follow-up appointments.
