Big Picture Caregiving Communication Book

Our Big Picture Caregiving Communication Book is ready to use with easy-to-view pictures to help adults who have aphasia, stroke, dementia, brain injury or autism express their care needs

This Big Picture Caregiving Communication book takes the guesswork out of trying to understand the physical and emotional needs of someone who cannot speak. Picture-based communication boards help adults with speech and cognitive challenges communicate their needs and feelings with caregivers, family and health professionals. We've expanded our our popular Portable Adult Communication  book and made it focus on the essential aspects of caregiving. Bigger pages and bigger pictures make it easier for adults with visual and fine motor challenges to use. Users simply point to the pictures using a finger or stylus to indicate a choice.

Our Big Picture Caregiving Communication book was designed specifically for adults and provides pre-made communication boards, each with 12 - 2" adult-appropriate pictures per board. Core vocabulary words are also included on each page to expand the user's meaning. The back side of each page features a blank template so you customize the board with personal favorites. The book is spiral bound so it opens flat to the page you want to use.  

Our communication book is ready to use including 300 pictures on 25 communication choice boards related to caregiving including personal care, socializing, basic needs and more. Topical boards cover commenting, feelings, questions, weather, visitors, places to go, activities, music, sports, personal care, bathing, body parts, medications, grooming, meal times, hot and cold drinks, breakfast and lunch foods and groceries. An instructional guide on how to introduce and use our picture communication book with adults is included. on the inside covers.
