Mary Pitti Daly and Jennifer Holmes Fouche

Facilitate community re-entry of adult clients by improving their capacity for communication and performance of activities of daily living with these picture cards.

They are perfect for use with clients who have decreased cognitive skills produced by stroke, traumatic brain injury, dementia, or neurological involvement. Illustrations and photographs pertain to activities such as grocery shopping, dining out, transportation, and gardening. Questions require clients to examine the information provided before answering.

The simulated situations and activities require the use of one or more cognitive and executive functions, encouraging clear verbal communication skills.
