Product Description:

Personal Decision Guides (sometimes called Patient Decision Aids) are tools to help people be actively involved in shared decision making about their healthcare or other important topics. The Personal Decision Guides (PDG) developed for this website use text with symbols for AAC. Some people who have limited literacy, but do not use AAC, may find text with only a few symbols helpful. The use of fewer symbols paired with text is an example of Universal Design (UD).
