 Introduction:This presentation will focus on learning the configuration/setup and accessibility software of the Apple Watch and the learning of these features within the iOS accessibility program is so important. After this presentation, the participants will be able to assess and recommend the Apple Watch, if appropriate to Veterans to improve their daily living, improve their communication, help them to stay active, and monitor their health.
