Senior Care Path Summary

Canadian Assistive Technologies specializes in assistive technology for people with vision loss, hearing challenges, mobility limitations, and other accessibility needs. They offer low vision aids, optical magnifiers, blindness solutions, mobility canes, physical access aids, communication devices, and independent living equipment, with an Elder Care product line specifically for older adults. The company provides 1 hour of free remote training with every product purchase to ensure customers can set up and use their equipment confidently.

All products come with toll-free phone support, and the company partners with Chaos Technical Services (based in North Vancouver with over 25 years of assistive technology repair experience) to handle repairs quickly. Many devices are covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee, letting seniors try equipment risk-free before committing long-term. Customers can also borrow demo equipment through their Loan Program to test whether a device is the right fit for their needs.

The team is committed to finding solutions that match each customer's situation, offering price matching, payment plans through Affirm, and personalized consulting. With over 30 years in the assistive technology field, they emphasize empowering clients to live independently through accessible tools and professional support.

    Just the most fabulous place. Greg and Steve are so lovely and helpful. I’m beyond grateful for the care and attention they’ve given my dad. I would highly recommend to anyone who is dealing with vision or hearing impairments. This place is a godsend and we are so happy to have found it.

    We have many assistive products at our place of business, and the CAT team have always been there with help, advice, and patience to get us through every hiccup that comes our way for well over 15 years. Their help has been priceless. Thank you Steve, Ryan and Rick (Chaos Tech).
