Magnetic Visual Routine Board | NDIS Memory & Planning Aid

Reduce cognitive load and combat "time blindness" with the Quick Canary Visual Routine Board. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this magnetic planner is specifically designed to support NDIS participants living with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), or memory impairments who require external visual cues to manage their daily routine.

Internalising a schedule can be a source of significant anxiety and executive dysfunction. This board serves as an external "working memory," allowing participants to visualise the month ahead, track appointments, and manage tasks from a central hub—the kitchen fridge. By making time "visible," it promotes independence, fosters better communication with support workers, and provides the structure needed to navigate daily life with confidence. The high-quality surface is engineered to be stain-resistant, ensuring the visual cues remain clear and legible over long-term use.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Mitigating Time Blindness: The monthly layout allows participants to visually "see" the passage of time and upcoming deadlines, which is a critical support for those who struggle with abstract time concepts.

• Supporting Executive Function: Externalises the mental burden of remembering dates and initiating tasks, freeing up cognitive energy for other daily living activities.

• Reducing Anxiety: Provides a predictable, visual structure of the week or month, helping to alleviate anxiety associated with the unknown or unexpected changes in routine.

• Shared Communication: Acts as a central reference point for participants, family members, and support workers to ensure everyone is aligned on the roster and care plan.

Key Features & Benefits

• High-Visibility Layout: The 43cm x 30cm size offers an uncluttered grid, providing ample space to write clear, readable instructions or reminders.

• Stain-Resistant Technology: Engineered with a premium surface that prevents "ghosting" or staining, ensuring the board remains clean and usable for years, even if writing is left on for months.

• Strong Magnetic Backing: Features a full-sheet magnetic back that grips firmly to curved or flat fridge doors, preventing the board from sliding or falling during use.

• Immediate Setup: Supplied as a complete kit with 4 fine-tip markers and a large eraser, allowing the participant to implement their visual schedule immediately.

• Colour-Coded Organization: The included coloured markers allow for categorization of tasks (e.g., Red for medical, Blue for social), aiding visual processing.
