Tools and skills people use to meet their basic needs?

Technology.

Answer:

Technology is not a basic need. Basic needs involve getting food, fluid, going to the bathroom, washing/keeping clean, getting dressed, and needs for social, religious, and community support. The physical needs are called Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).

Tools and Skills needed to meet ADLs:

• Ability to move about independently
• Ability to mentally understand the task
• Ability to perform the task

For social, religious, and community support, a person primarily must desire these contacts. They then need a way to make contact, whether using a telephone, the internet, or transportation.
