2. Communication, Assessment and intervention using TEC

In recent years, technology has been increasingly used to support communication, assessment and intervention for people who use services.

In this thing, we are going to discuss how you can make this a part of your work too.

Technology can only support care if people know how to use it and are able to do so. People who are receiving services may be able to do this themselves, may require some assistance, or may have to rely on others to do it for them. Here we will help you think about how you could support someone to use technology.
