Joe
zuvo™ 16 with eyespeak™
Richard
wego™ 10A
Richard lost the ability to use his own voice as a result of a car accident. He uses the wego 10A to communicate on a daily basis - whether he's providing instructions to others, making a phone call or having a casual conversation.
Ralph
wego™ 10A
Humor, wit (and pushing his wife's buttons) are a few of the traits that make Ralph (a USA Veteran) who he is. Watch how he uses the wego 10A to make a joke - the same way he did before ALS took away his ability to speak.

Evaluation Support
Our experienced team of Speech Language Pathologists/AAC Consultants are available to support your evaluations. We'll work with the veteran's team to help assess skills and needs related to voice message banking, environmental controls, vocabulary, access methods and mounting. The result is a tailored speech-generating device that supports successful communication across their varied environments.
Personalization
Our mission is to see veterans start communicating using their new speech-generating device as quickly as possible, so we'll do the initial customizing and personalization before shipping it to them! With input from family members and therapists, we'll add a bit of their personality to their device, so the first words spoken have meaning, like "Let's watch the big game!", "Hunny, are you watching QVC AGAIN?", or "I'm a proud Grandfather of ten."
Training and Support
In support of developing confidence and communication success, our expert AAC Consultants/SLPs will provide monthly* consultation to each veteran and their entire support team. From developing skills related to practical use, caregiver support, rate enhancement strategies, access methods, to environment and computer control.
*Monthy consultations are available via a variety of remote methods, including Teleconference, Skype, FaceTime, Web conferencing and remote sharing.
