An IPad, regular or Mini. 

Or a lot of my Bulbar PALS are using the iPhone 6 Plus. 

Verbally software is free for the iPad and it's great. Not available on iPhone though. 

For iPhone, Speak It and Co:Writer work great

What is your preferred speech generating device for a PALS who has bulbar onset and is ambulating?

 

I used to recommend the Lightwriter SL40 quite a bit, but last I heard insurance isn’t covering those anymore or they’re no longer being manufactured? Thoughts on this?

 

I have a patient right now actually (in 5 minutes) who is bulbar onset and looking for a recommendation. I will likely give him a loaner lightwriter for today but looking towards the future what is everyone recommending?
