Let’s talk about low-tech communication devices!

Not all AAC (Augmentative & Alternative Communication) needs to be high-tech.

Simple tools like communication boards and picture cards can make a big impact — quick to use, easy to access, and ideal for everyday conversations.

Because meaningful communication starts with the right tools. 🌟

✨ Our speechie Bryan is showing how we can tailor Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC) trials for adult clients using high-tech solutions that can align with their needs!

1. Symbol-based gridsets like VocoChat are great for quick common phrases, functional communication and help reduce fatigue during conversations.

2. Keyboard-based layouts such as AEIOU are ideal for composing new messages, and supporting more independent communication over time.

For clients with fine motor challenges, we can adjust touchscreen settings such as touch-and-hold activation or visual pop-up guides to make selections easier and more accurate.

💬 Every AAC setup is unique, and we love helping clients find what works best for them.

We recently welcomed Speech Pathologists from Far North Queensland for a Professional Development session focused on high-tech AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication).

As two of the few SLPs providing speech therapy across Cooktown and Thursday Island, they play a vital role in supporting communication access in remote communities.

At LifeTec, our Speech Pathologist is skilled in providing mentoring, training, and hands-on learning experiences to help professionals build confidence in prescribing and supporting AAC.

If your team is looking to strengthen your knowledge in communication technology and assistive solutions, we’d love to support your next learning session.

Not all assistive technology is the same. Some products are simple to use, while others need professional advice and setup.

The NDIS groups AT into two categories: low risk and higher risk - to help keep you safe and supported.

🟢 Low risk AT includes everyday aids that are easy to buy and use safely.
🟠 Higher risk AT covers more complex systems, like power wheelchairs or communication devices, which may need setup or training.

If you’re considering higher risk AT, the NDIS requires advice from a skilled health professional (such as an Occupational Therapist or Speech Pathologist) before purchase.

💡 Our LifeTec team can help you find and safely use the right AT to meet your goals through your NDIS plan.

LifeTec’s Story

LifeTec is a social enterprise that provides dedicated assistive technology (AT) services. Our aim is to enable people of all ages and abilities to actively engage in home, work, school and community life.

We are experts in recommending the correct use of assistive technology, displaying hundreds of helpful items in our Ambient Living Display Centres, and we have an extensive online database of many more. Our qualified health professionals will give you impartial advice so that you can make informed decisions about what is best for you.

Established in 1981 as The Independent Living Centre by Louise van Willigen, LifeTec has been providing specialist advice and information to help people make their lives easier through assistive technology.

Louise was an astute, energetic, and visionary leader. On its opening, the Independent Living Centre was a modest one-room display staffed only by Louise herself in a humble demountable unit on the grounds of the Greenslopes Hospital.
