The other side of the physical assistance the various devices and modifications for the person needing them is the psychological benefit of still being able to perform the activity by themselves, even if needing a device: e.g. putting on socks by themselves with an assist tool is still putting on their own socks. The alternative is of having someone else put the socks on them. This can be psychologically painful because now you, an adult, are being reduced to the state of a helpless infant.

Keeping people able to say "I can do it by myself!" is tremendously important.
