KEYCOMM - The Key to Communication Through Technology

KEYCOMM provides 5 core services to residents of the Lothians.  We will consider referrals for people with communication impairments where it is felt that their quality of life and access to learning are severely impaired and may be improved through the use of technology and/or other AAC strategies.

 

A KEYCOMM referral can be made for a person of any age.

 

Call KEYCOMM on 0131 311 7130  for more information, a referral form or a request form for low tech materials. An electronic referral form is available on our downloads page.

  

The 5 core services are;

  • ASSESSMENT

You can refer someone to KEYCOMM for a complete communication technology assessment.  This means filling out a short referral form and then one member of the KEYCOMM team will visit you/user.

 

  • LOAN BANK OF EQUIPMENT

You can borrow items from our extensive loan bank.  If you know what you want to try, just call up and see if it is available in our loan bank.  Loans are usually made for a period of 3-5 months.

We work with you to develop a communication technology programme for individual patients and their facilitators. We support in it's implementation, and are on hand to meet training and equipment needs.

 

You can attend our monthly Open Afternoons.  These are times when you can visit KEYCOMM.  We make sure all the staff are on hand to answer any questions or show you equipment. It is best to call to arrange an appointment.
