Supporting Independence With The Right Equipment & Solutions
Assistive Technology (AT) can make everyday activities safer, easier, and more accessible. At Bridging Potentials, our Occupational Therapists in Adelaide provide comprehensive Assistive Technology Assessments to identify equipment and supports that help participants live more independently and confidently.
We take the time to understand each participant’s functional needs, goals, and daily environment before recommending solutions. Whether support is needed at home, in the community, at school, or in the workplace, our team ensures recommendations are practical, personalised, and aligned with long-term outcomes.
Our assessments focus on improving participation, reducing barriers, and enhancing quality of life through appropriate assistive technology solutions.
What We Can Help With
Bridging Potentials supports participants in identifying and accessing assistive technology that promotes safety, comfort, and independence across daily activities.
Our Assistive Technology Assessments may include:
- Mobility and transfer equipment
- Seating and positioning supports
- Bathroom and personal care aids
- Daily living and household equipment
- Communication devices and supports
- Pressure care and safety equipment
- Recommendations for home modifications
- Environmental accessibility solutions
We also consider how equipment integrates into the participant’s routines, ensuring recommendations are sustainable and suited to real-life use.
Our Occupational Therapists provide detailed, NDIS-compliant reports that support funding applications for Low, Mid, or High Cost Assistive Technology. We can also collaborate with families, support coordinators, suppliers, and other allied health professionals to ensure smooth implementation.
How Our Process Works
Our Assistive Technology Assessment process is designed to be collaborative and participant-focused.
Initial Consultation – Understanding goals, challenges, and daily support needs
Functional Assessment – Evaluating mobility, safety, and environmental factors
Equipment Trials (where required) – Identifying suitable technology options
Clinical Recommendations & Reporting – Preparing detailed NDIS documentation
Implementation Support – Liaising with providers and supporting setup where needed
This structured approach helps ensure participants receive equipment that genuinely improves independence and participation.
