View Award Description

ACCESS for Aging Well with AT (Aging Well 2.0): An Integrated Platform for Assessments and Solutions for Independent Living Outcomes - The Georgia Institute of Technology, in collaboration with the Washington Assistive Technology Act Program and Association of Assistive Technology Act Programs, will develop and promote the adoption of ACCESS for Aging Well with AT 2.0 (Aging Well 2.0), an online system that service providers and older adults aging into or with a disability can use to find and implement assistive technology (AT) and other accommodations for activities of daily living. The goal of this 3-year project is to help older adults make informed decisions about AT that would enable them to age in place. Two NIDILRR-funded prototype systems, the ACCESS for Aging Well assessment tool and the AT Network community of practice on AT will be integrated into a new system that will guide the user from assessment for AT to product exploration to implementation. The project team will work with state agencies to 1) integrate ACCESS for Aging Well and the AT Network into a seamless platform to provide assessments, recommendations, and solutions; 2) evaluate and validate the system; 3) build a community of system users; 4) refine the system, including adding information responsive to system usage; and 5) disseminate and commercialize Aging Well 2.0. Aging Well 2.0 will help older adults obtain AT that better fits their needs, reducing unmet accommodation needs. Over time, this should translate into greater independence, reduced reliance on care partners, and improved quality of life. Project outputs include the development and commercialization of Aging Well 2.0, including validated decision algorithms, an engaged community of practice, and findings about AT usage and effectiveness for older adults.
