Can this be used for diverse patient populations?

Are there multiple sides for communication?

Does the board have glare-reducing properties?
The surface is designed with a smooth, matte finish specifically to minimize glare, ensuring that patients can read the text clearly under various lighting conditions, including bright hospital lights.
Is the marker specialized for this surface?
The board includes a standard dry-erase marker compatible with the surface. Because it is a standard dry-erase tool, the board can also be paired with most other standard dry-erase markers should you need to replace the included one.
