Communication Game

Board game created with NHS Education Scotland to help health & social care staff improve communication skills & support people with communication support needs

[Serious Games & Simulations @FocusGames]

During #COVID19 NHS staff still need ongoing training. Face-to-face is not always possible.

So, we have FREE 'serious' games to help staff improve knowledge via their phone. Bite-sized learning that offers a useful distraction. Please share https://t.co/BHZFmO0N8A

Adapting the way you communicate can really help when someone has communication difficulties. Some ideas include using your hands to help convey your message, keeping a pen and paper handy, or using pictures/symbols to support communication

Communication is a basic human right, the means through which we control our existence. Estimates suggest 50%-90% of people with learning disabilities have communication difficulties. How can you communicate more effectively with people who have LDs? Please share. #BILDFactTweets
