RE: Mental Health Therapy was: RE: Questions about transition from windows to a mac
Not David, but Book Share used to have the DSM IV on site, I am not sure about the new DSM V that was released in 2013, however. I can also tell you that I have been able to use the Micro medics drug app on my iPhone for the past several years, however, I don't recall recent updates. Then of course there are search engines which can be used with Safari. I needed these a couple of years ago when the hospital updated to IE 8 and I had JAWS 9 which did not work with IE 8, had to use my phone for months until they could purchase or would purchase and upgrade Jaws.

They are from a couple different sources, including Bookshare. I use a reader app to access DSM. I use Apple's notes for my case notes. I use Apple Calendar for all my appointments. Reception has access to my business calendar for scheduling. I use pages for writing forms and letters. I then export to doc and email to reception for printing. Reception fills out any paper forms with my direction. I use KNFB Reader for OCR of paper, including letters, journal articles, an so forth. For book reading, I use Kindle and iBooks for their specifically formatted books. Otherwise, I use Read2Go and Voice Dream. For PDF paperwork, I use iBooks. Also, I have a growing collection of specialised materials in ePub which I use iBooks to access. I am about to start using numbers next week. Oh, I use KeyNote for presentations. Finally, I use braille screen input on my iPhone 6+ or my iPad for all of my writing. I love continuity between Apple products as I can jump between devices whilst working. I use music when I need to play quiet background relaxation music during hypnosis sessions. I do everything for work on my iPhone or iPad.
