Sometimes Independence Just Needs the Right Tool for the Job…

A resident struggling with a task isn’t always a case for more hands-on assistance — often it’s a case for the right adaptive tool or a smarter setup in the environment itself. Direct Care Training’s OT Learning: Assistive Technology and Environmental Modifications expands OTs’ toolkit for exactly those solutions.

The course introduces assistive technology and environmental modification principles, then walks through assessing client needs and collaborative goal setting. From there, it covers adaptive tools and smart home technology, ergonomic design for accessibility, and closes with real case studies and action-plan development to connect theory to practice.

Michigan AFC CEU-eligible, this course helps OTs empower residents with mobility or sensory impairments toward greater independence — in home and workplace settings alike.
