Hi,

A user with Parkinson's disease is able to use the computer? Can he use
switch or big keyboard? Do you have any experience? Can you send me
links where to buy AT for him?

Best regards,

Hello Zsolt,

Yes, there are many options for a computer or device. In my experience, it
just depends on the severity of the hand tremor, and their body overall (in
terms of what options would work best). Some people use mouth sticks,
others use eye tracking, but again it depends on individual circumstances.

Cheers

Lisa
