Long Term Loans

A long term loan item is either a pre-identified piece of Assistive Technology requested and made available to an organization by AzTAP or it is an item that is no longer potentially helpful to a consumer in a decision making process and/or is no longer commercially available for purchase or acquisition. In the case of these two latter conditions these items will still have potential usefulness to a person with a disability. Long term loan equipment from AzTAP can be checked out with a signed loan agreement for an open ended and/or indefinite period of time. AzTAP staff will follow up with the long term borrower on an annual basis to check on the user’s status with the device or piece of equipment. If and when the device or piece of equipment malfunctions or is no longer needed by the user then arrangements must be made for its return to AzTAP.
