Life Skills

Assist your student or client to succeed in school, the workplace or other real-life situations. Handheld devices can be used to remind individuals with cognitive disabilities of daily appointments and tasks. These PDAs can also be programmed to provide time-based prompts and to provide step-by-step instructions for vocational, educational or daily living tasks. These handheld solutions use standard PDA hardware-so individuals who use them are using the same popular devices other adults are using.

Community Integration Suite: Simplified access to a handheld Pocket PC provides time-based schedule prompting, as well as personalized task prompting with digital pictures and auditory instructions. Now users traveling to work, school, or into the community have access to calendar reminders and support for important vocational and educational tasks using the same popular devices other adults are using.

The Community Integration Suite includes: Schedule Assistant, Pocket Discovery Desktop and Pocket Compass. Purchase software only and run on your PDA running Windows Mobile 5 or newer or purchase with Pocket PC.

  • Schedule Assistant by: AbleLink Technologies. Handheld solution combines time-based audio messages and a relevant picture or icon. Record a message and designate the days(s) and time for it to activate.
  • Pocket Compass by: AbleLink Technologies. AbleLink's most powerful handheld prompting system. Designed to increase independence with step-by-step instructions, digital pictures; support for completing more complex tasks as well as time-based prompts. Decision Tree capability adapts to changes in situation.
  • Pocket Discovery Desktop by: AbleLink Technologies. Simplified interface for accessing a PDA. Sits "on top" of the traditional Windows Pocket PC Desktop so that an individual with cognitive disabilities can access his or her Pocket PC independently. Customizable to meet an individual's needs. Onscreen buttons can be created for any application on the PDA.
Phone Option: Add Pocket Ace to the Community Integration Suite and use with a PDA that has been set up to operate as a phone. Pocket ACE uses pictures and audio messages to access cell phone. Picture-based address book.
