agreements
STL
has opted out of this as an option in our loan closet – due to not
being able to control the personal device information on it.
The
committee felt if people we going to spend money - this would be a
good option for entertainment, computer access, and speech generating
before moving onto a dedicated SGD. Technically, it is not a
speech generating device and should not be loaned out as such.
I
was told that there are apps that make the IPAD switch adapted –
anyone know about this - or can provide a list?

agreements
To those AT folks that
have purchased iPads and use them as part of a loaner closet...do any of
you have a loaner agreement for iPads? I have a typical DME/AT loaner
agreement form but was wondering if any of you did one specifically for
iPads? (like do you or do you not allow personal stuff on them like
music, videos, etc...)
If you have developed a loaner
agreement for iPads, will you share?
Thanks,
