"The diary allows the person to gain autonomy. We use the same images as on the Pictalk application which is a real support in communication and the expression of speech. Since using it, the person I support has really gained in expression, in self-confidence, people consider them more"
Mélanie, Socio-professional support officer
For professionals: Improve the welcome and simplify the work of the teams
Mastering Pictalk Buddy (1/3)
Pictalk Buddy, autonomy for everyone
An application tailored to the needs of ESMS
We co-designed Pictalk Buddy, particularly the Agenda part, with professionals from the TechLab d'APF France Handicap. We then confronted our first version with caregivers and professionals from the medico-social field during two workshops organized by Digimentally. This development process allows Pictalk Buddy to address the issues of people with neuro-developmental disorders, as well as the constraints of professionals and caregivers.
Reduction of anxiety and support for autonomy
The Pictalk Buddy app, developed in collaboration with users in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), uses advanced digital technologies to help structure the day. It reduces anxiety by providing visual and temporal cues, tailored to the needs of individuals with intellectual disabilities or DYS disorders.
