What must a participant do before getting assistive technology?

[LifeBalanceNDIS]

After the NDIS approves the assistive technology in the participant's plan, the steps taken before purchasing it depend on the cost and risk associated with the item. Before making the purchase, the participant should seek advice or an assessment. It's important to note that certain assistive technologies pose higher risks, potentially leading to harm if they are not used or set up correctly.

The participant should consider whether the assistive technology falls into the categories of:

• Low risk
• High risk
