Sometimes when talking about augmenting, people think we are talking about replacement. We have talked about the issues relating to therapies across the board. Has CentralReach looked at some of these assistive technologies as regards augmenting those sorts of therapies, be they in speech and language, occupational therapy or whatever else? In general, it is repetition of strategies and obviously that would add to everything. We have all done classes where we knew what we were meant to do when we walked out the door but 20 minutes later it was a different scenario. We could all have done with the prompting and repetition app.
