This past Sunday, “60 Minutes” featured a segment called “Apps for Autism” highlighting the breakthroughs clinicians and teachers have seen with the help of the tablet computers. Apps used on the iPad can help communicate needs, test vocabulary and assist in other communication tasks.
At ESHC our clinicians have begun a pilot iPad program within therapy sessions to see if outcomes in therapy improve with the use of the technology. If you are interested in learning more about the program, or seeing if your child can take part in sessions using the iPad, contact our account coordinators.
