Financial Loan Success Story
Dennis of Cordell had been searching for assistive technology to help him independently complete daily living activities and travel due to his multiple sclerosis. While visiting one of ABLE Tech’s partners, United Access, and receiving a demonstration of adaptive equipment, he learned about ABLE Tech services. Dennis later utilized the financial loan program to purchase a lift seat for a pickup and a new walk-in shower in his home. The lift seat allows Dennis to get in the family vehicle to go to doctor appointments and physical therapy. The home accessibility modification allows Dennis safe access to a shower and one more opportunity to remain independent.
