American Academy Of Pediatrics Communicating Visually In Pediatrics A Step By Step Tool For Supporting Patients And Caregivers (Pb 2022) by Danielle Fleckenstein and Alan I Rosenblatt
This spiral-bound visual communication aid is designed to help pediatricians and others who work in medical settings with children who are nonverbal, including toddlers; children with conditions such as autism, cerebral palsy, language disorders, intellectual disabilities, or oral-motor apraxia; or children who do not speak English. Nearly 400 easy to understand, full color images depict common medical procedures, from bandaging to vaccine administration as well as important patient-provider communication, including describing symptoms or post-visit instructions. Each image is captioned in both English and Spanish for maximum in-office utility, and the pages are fully wipeable for simple disinfecting after each patient. Interactive use of this resource will improve communication, reduce fear and anxiety, and boost patients' understanding and participation in the medical visit.Key FeaturesFour-color interiorCaptions in both English and SpanishIncludes both office-based and inpatient proceduresWipeable pages for easy disinfectingSpiral binding for lay-flat, easy use with patientsshow more
