Alisa:

Thanks – this was a helpful article.  One problem I need to give a patient information about is hands free phone operation.  She needs to operate her phone with her voice – make calls and answer them. Is there something you recommend?  I have hear about the iphone 6 but just wondered if there was something else you recommend.  Thanks!

HI.

Click on "Communication Tools” in the Menu Window on the left side of the screen and the materials will appear. This images can be printed from this screen for immediate use. If the printed image contains more information than just the communication board, take a screen shot of the board and print it that way.

We thanks our authors for releasing this materials.  (http://www.amazon.com/Patient-Provider-Communication-Speech-Language-Pathologists-Professionals/dp/1597565741/ref=sr_1_8?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1429725429&sr=1-8&keywords=Beukelman%2C+David)
