Assistive Technology For Brain Injury
Gaining Independence At Home and In the CommunityLiving With Brain Injury
At Living Without Limits, we know that each person with brain injury has a distinct set of strengths and challenges. Some people may be able to live independently with very little support, while others may require enhanced support in their daily lives.
Wherever one may be in terms of need, assistive and smart technologies help each person with brain injury live increasingly independent lives – at home and in the community.
At Living Without Limits, we believe that every person with brain injury, regardless of complexity or severity, deserves the opportunity to live as independently as possible, whether that involves living with family, living on their own, or living in a community arrangement.
Our team helps individuals and families implement solutions that balance independence and fulfillment with safety and security, offering family and friends peace of mind and support throughout the process and beyond.
New Possibilities for People with Brain Injury
“Smart home” technologies are taking assistive technology to new levels. At the same time, these smart home technologies provide the information that caregivers and loved ones need to remotely support and provide safety and security.
To help individuals stay on task, aide with social skills, or provide augmentative and alternative communication, there indeed is an App or a device. AT solutions also address wander prevention, medication management, transportation, and emergency and medical response support. The key is finding the best match between the technology solution and the highly unique needs of each person.
Let us help you create a thoughtful assistive technology implementation plan, so that you and your loved one can continue to live life to its fullest.
Starting With a Comprehensive Assessment
An AT assessment starts with an understanding of the needs, wants and desires of an individual with brain injury. The smart technology solution is then created.
Training during the transition to independence builds confidence, competence, and comfort.
The right supports, monitoring and alert systems offer safe, healthier independent living.
Meeting Unique Needs
The Living Without Limits team combines smart home and assistive technology with natural family supports, paid staff, and care services to meet individual situations.
