Number Therapy Lite vs Lite MedConcerns

Numbers communicate so much, yet they are often left out of communication therapy. Now stroke survivors can practice understanding, saying, and typing numbers at home to improve these essential life skills. Age, dates, phone numbers, addresses, money, time, measurements, fractions, weight, years – numbers are everywhere and so important. Be more independent with communication with stronger number communication skills.

The MedConcerns app serves as an interpreting tool for healthcare providers to use with people with aphasia and other communication barriers when completing a medical assessment. It is a communication aid for reporting medical symptoms, but does not diagnose or recommend any treatment options. Please seek a doctor’s advice before making any medical decisions. Created by a speech language pathologist (SLP) and physician team, the MedConcerns app combines the physician’s comprehensive medical assessment with built-in evidence-based communication techniques of the SLP. This combination enables the healthcare provider to truly find out what is bothering their patient with aphasia. It’s time to break down communication barriers in healthcare! For people with aphasia and other communication barriers, it is imperative that healthcare providers use proven communication techniques, but training is often a barrier. NO TRAINING IS REQUIRED to use this simple tool! WHO IS IT FOR? Healthcare providers, caregivers, communication partners, people with aphasia or other communication barriers, including those following stroke or brain injury, respiratory failure, progressive neurodegenerative diseases. WHO CAN IT HELP? Anyone that would benefit from pointing to a symptom because they can't say it aloud - And anyone that wants to help someone to communicate their medical concerns! ............................
