AB - Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the awareness and availability on items of 2018 assistivedevices distribution program for the disabled in the occupational therapists.
Methods : A total of 132 occupational therapists participated in the survey from May 1 to May 31.
Results : 96.2% of the occupational therapists responded that assistive device is helpful in lives of the disabledpeople. Especially, they responded that assistive device is the most helpful in 'movement and mobility'. Awarenesson an angle spoon/fork with built-up handle and universal cuff was the highest, while a visual signaling indicatorwas the lowest. Availability on an air cushion was the highest, while a visual signaling indicator and a voiceguidance system were the lowest. 67.4% responded that 'sometimes' they use the assistive device and 77.3%responded they will utilize the assistive device. To improve awareness and availability, 43.2% needed financialsupport, 32.6% needed to add insurance bill and 22.7% needed related education.
Conclusion : In the future, this result will be available as a basic data for the education about assistive device for theoccupational therapists.
