Empowering Independence Through the Right Tools
Adaptive equipment can transform daily challenges into manageable tasks—but only when individuals are trained to use these tools effectively. At ThriveWell Therapy Inc., our Adaptive Equipment Training program teaches clients how to confidently and safely use assistive devices such as grab bars, reachers, dressing aids, and more. With proper instruction, these tools become powerful allies in maintaining independence and safety at home.
Making Everyday Tasks More Accessible
Our licensed occupational therapists assess each client’s functional needs, living environment, and physical abilities to recommend the most suitable adaptive tools. From small handheld devices to home safety modifications, we ensure every client receives hands-on guidance to use equipment correctly and comfortably as part of their daily routine.
Our Adaptive Equipment Training Services Include
• Functional assessments to identify areas where support is needed
• Personalized recommendations for adaptive tools and assistive technology
• Hands-on training with equipment such as grab bars, reachers, sock aids, long-handled
sponges, dressing sticks, and more
• Guidance on proper placement and use of mobility or safety devices

• Follow-up support to evaluate comfort and adjust techniques as needed
