Emergency Communication Boards

 

Developed with the assistance of professional first responders, doctors, emergency medical personnel, firefighters, law enforcement officers, special needs organizations, and individuals, these two-sided boards are specifically designed for individuals identified with special needs or who are non-verbal. They facilitate two-way communication and clarification for individuals with Autism, age-related diseases, special needs, unclear speech, or those who are mute, deaf, hard of hearing, hearing impaired, or English language learners. 

 

Each board features colorful icons that depict a patient’s main complaint and type of pain, which enhances understanding and reduces the potential for misinterpretation. Additionally, the board includes 46 words, 26 phrases, a pain scale, a QWERTY alphabet, and a numbers keyboard to help determine the what, where, when, why, and how of a patient’s medical needs. These valuable tools can be utilized in the field, in triage settings, and in countless other locations.

These visual aids are essential for supporting communication and clarification during medical interactions.
