At this event, we will hear from clinicians, service users, carers and support workers about their journey to make technology a tool that works for every single user.
You will hear about:
- practical ways of adjusting a digital tool to the individual using it, to make them feel more comfortable in their path to more independence
- the importance of creative and empathetic attitudes in problem-solving in order to build tailored solutions
- evidence for the benefits of using digital tools for people with learning disabilities and some cautionary tales, too.
- ways to involve the person, their family and carers at an early stage and throughout the decision-making process
- the role of technology in promoting better health outcomes for people from disadvantaged groups and enhancing social inclusion.
