Gizmo provides therapuetic supports in the form of independent advice and prescription from an experienced allied health professional working in the field of complex assistive technology.  

AT that is more complex requires detailed assessment, trialling and prescription:  this service is provided by Gizmo and has a cost that is separate from the AT itself.  Jenni works with each client throughout the equipment selection process, providing as much or as little support as you require to get equipment in place to help you achieve your individual goals.
