You don’t need to know the technical terms. Tell ADAPT what feels confusing, what you’ve tried, and what you would like to do more confidently.

We can focus on one task at a time, repeat the steps together, and discuss simple notes you can refer to later. Family members and caregivers are welcome to participate.

Technology Education focuses on understanding and using your devices. If you need a new device installed or assembled, explore our Assistive Device Installation service. Brian can discuss installation and training together when both would help.

Share the device name or model and describe the task before we plan a visit. Support depends on the device, service, and task; specialized repairs or provider account issues may need the manufacturer or service provider.

1. Share your goal.

Tell ADAPT which device you use and what you want to learn.

2. Discuss the help you need.

We’ll plan practical guidance around your priorities and comfort level.

3. Agree on scope and cost.

The work, timing, and cost are discussed before the visit.
