Peach Physiotherapy & Wellness Centre is an official ADP (Assistive Devices Program) authorizer for walkers. Our licensed practitioners offer personalized assessments to help you find the perfect walker for your needs.
What is the Assistive Devices Program (ADP)?
The Ontario government provides financial assistance for those who who need mobility aids. The program was created to help pay for the cost of personalized equipment or supplies. There are no financial requirements (such as being under a tier of income) to qualify for the program. It is based solely on the needs of the individual.
Who is eligible?
You must meet the following criteria to be eligible for funding from the Assistive Devices Program:
- Be a resident of Ontario
- Have your Ontario Health Card
- Have a mobility concern requiring a mobility aid
What is included in the program?
Those who are approved receive 75% of the cost of a mobility device. You can receive 100% of the cost covered if you have extended healthcare coverage or if you’re receiving benefits from Ontario Works, Ontario Disability Support Program or Assistance For Children With Severe Disabilities.
How to start your ADP walker assessment
Schedule an appointment with one of our physiotherapists. The assessment will include physical tests as well as an interview about your personal needs and day-to-day activities. Once we determine the best mobility device for you, we can begin the process of submitting the application to the government.
Is the cost of my physiotherapy visit covered?
If you have third-party insurance or receive benefits you may be eligible to have your ADP assessment covered. OHIP does not cover the cost directly so it’s important to check with your provider on the details of your coverage.
