Hi and welcome Gideon,

ALSA has some great webinars on iPads and other things that will interest you. Here is the link though I am having trouble accessing them. http://www.alsa.org/als-care/resources/webinars.html

Maybe Alisa can help.

Here is a direct link to one I did for ALSA entitled

Keeping Tablets Accessible While Living with ALS http://webgw.alsa.org/site/PageNavigator/GW_8a_AAC_resources_and_webinars.html

My website frequently has articles on iPad use for PALS and my Pinteret site has mounting and accessory items displayed. pinterest.com/AmyandPALS

Remember to look at Android and Windows tablets too. There are many more access options available for these than there are for iPads which is key for our patients.

Hi All,

I wanted to send out a 1st post so that the address would be saved in my contacts.

But while I'm at it... I would appreciated any input y'all may have regarding iPads and use with pALS. Are there specific apps and/or accessibility features that have proven useful? Anyone have experience using the new switch capability with the iPad?

Thank you so much.

Gideon
