ToothBrush Pillow

June 26, 2022 By Guam CEDDERS

The toothbrush pillow is a small tabletop device which balances a toothbrush in the horizontal position with bristles up to aid and assist physically or neurologically impaired individuals in applying toothpaste.

The device is currently being used by individuals with Parkinson’s, arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), stroke, Autism, and upper limb amputees.  Occupational therapists supply the Toothbrush Pillow, during recovery, to teach clients proper oral care.  The device creates opportunities for individuals with daily oral care when dealing with extraordinary medical issues in the absence of medical doctors.  Very economical, easy to use, and can be used independently.

GSAT CONFERENCE is going VIRTUAL

October 27, 2020 By Guam CEDDERS

This year the  GSAT CONFERENCE is going VIRTUAL and WE WANT YOU TO BE THERE!

The Guam System for Assistive Technology (GSAT) is a program under the Guam Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research and Service (CEDDERS), and it is our mission to help individuals with disabilities meet their Assistive Technology needs and increase their quality of life.  This year’s theme is “Creating Opportunities in a Changing World.” The heightened health concerns brought about by the current pandemic has changed the way we approach life.  Achieving accessibility and staying connected to be more inclusive in employment, school and community is needed in this digital age.

Assistive technology can also be inexpensive. There are low tech tech solutions for a variety of needs.  This year we are honored to have two astounding speakers that will be presenting during the conference.
