Assistive technology and equipment

Many adults with cerebral palsy (CP) use many pieces of equipment and/or technology and are knowledgeable about their needs and preferences

Assistive technology and equipment can help adults to maintain their independence and well-being. Use of equipment may also be important for parents, families and caregivers to maintain their own health and wellbeing when providing care and support to adults with CP.
