Michigan Assistive Technology Program

New in Inventory: Guided Hands

We now have the updated version of Guided Hands available in our inventory. Our new bundles include the Guided Hands unit, the new joystick handpiece, and the Adaptations Kit.

The updated model includes important design improvements that enhance both durability and accessibility, helping create a smoother and more reliable user experience. Guided Hands can support increased independence with activities like eating, writing, painting, gaming, and using technology by assisting people with limited hand or arm mobility.

Contact us to learn more or to be added to the waitlist for a demonstration or short-term loan.

We also have older refurbished Guided Hands devices available through our reuse program. These devices are available at no cost for individuals interested in receiving one, depending on availability.
