Digital Talking Mats:

Following a process of integrating feedback from our customers Phase 2 of the Digital Talking Mat (DTM) is now complete. The features include:

• Easy access to a wide range of symbol sets relating to health and well-being, structured in thematic groups. The design means you cannot lose or mix the symbols up.
• An intuitive design which automatically prompts the user through the Talking Mat framework
• An ability to import relevant photos or images from your camera role or web to personalise the mats or create sub-mats.
• A secure log on to protect confidentiality
• Storage of previous mats on the internal DTM filing system allows reflection and progress evaluation
• Facility to email completed mat, additional comments and action plan directly to relevant team members.

Our customers have told us that a subscription model is challenging for organisations to manage so we have shifted to a one off purchase. We understand that organisations will require their staff to have more than one log on and we have a scheme to allow you to do that at a significantly reduced cost.

Customers using the DTM are excited by its easy to use design and time efficient solution to person centred intervention.
