Three points of attention are listed below for your reference:
1. Who will use it: In addition to the difference between men and women, elderly people will be affected by body shape or disease. Therefore, even the same age, the requirements for assistive devices are different and must be different from person to person.
2. Location of use: Whether the assistive device should be used indoors or outdoors is different. From the beginning, there are different requirements and designs in terms of function and material. Therefore, the location of the assistive device in the future is also an important indicator for choosing an assistive device.
3. Purpose of use: first understand the user's ability to use and what is really needed? Can users use it easily after purchase? Try to buy from the user's point of view, rather than blindly pursuing multi-functional, most advanced, or most popular assistive products.
