Professional guidance helps The switch itself is simple, but it only helps once it is matched to the person and connected to something useful. Choosing the size, the best way to activate it, and the device it controls goes better with a therapist or ATP. Most families can plug it in alone, but the results are usually stronger with expert input.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The Cushion Grip Switch slips over the hand, so a person can activate a toy or other device by gripping it with a palm or rolling it across a tray or tabletop. It's very sensitive and made to fit most users. It comes in two sizes: medium (5" x 2" x 2") and small (3.5" x 1.75" x 1.25"), each weighing about a quarter pound. It needs no battery. This is only the switch, so you'll need a switch-adapted toy or a switch interface to connect it to. It also suits early grasping practice.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Choose the medium or small size, then slip the switch over the hand.
  • With a guide
    1. Plug the switch into a switch-adapted toy, or into a switch interface connected to the device you want to control.
    2. Try a palm grasp and a roll across a tray or table to see which way works best. Allow 15-30 minutes. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
  • With professional help
    An occupational therapist, speech-language pathologist, or ATP can help pick the right size, position, and activation method, and decide what the switch should control. Plan on one assessment session, then follow-up trials.
