In response to the nationwide shortage of highly trained speech-language pathologists, tele-AAC has emerged as a viable way to reach underserved clients. This paper examines the clinical aspects related to tele-AAC, including required and supplementary technology/equipment, resources and personnel needed, training, and quality assurance considerations. In addition, the infrastructure necessary to deliver the range of synchronous and asynchronous tele-AAC services is discussed.","PeriodicalId":89830,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives on augmentative and alternative communication","volume":"23 1","pages":"18-33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"57640464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
