Before an Assistive Device Is Obtained, It Is Important to Consider

Before an assistive device is obtained, it is important to consider that:

A) if one type of device is inadequate to meet an individual's needs, it should be assumed that there are no viable alternatives.
B) it should be assumed that all individuals with the same disability require the same type of device.
C) since it is likely that individuals with severe disability may require high-technology devices, it should be assumed that individuals want that type of device or that other devices could not be equally useful.
D) individuals differ in their needs, values, perspectives, motivations, and expectations, all of which can affect the use of assistive devices.
