This question is for whoever can answer it. What is the role of assistive technology in helping people back into the workforce? I saw an article this week about such technology, developed by Alan Craughwell's company, AssistiV Ireland, that will help 1,000 people get back into the workforce in jobs in what I will term as a "pub situation" because I do not want to refer to the brand involved. Maybe Dr. Doorley can give an idea of the role played by assistive technology. If anybody else wants to comment on it, I would love to hear what they have to say.
