Timed Prompt Steps as "Place Holders"

Do you need to add in a timed prompt/break between steps in your schedule using First Then Visual Schedule HD? 

Try adding a "holding step" between regular steps in your existing schedule, then attaching a timer for the length of time that you desire for the prompting step. You can add in an audio prompt of your choice (voice, etc.) to "alert" the user and remind them to stay on task.

When your schedule plays out, they will have an extra "step" in between regular schedule items to bring them back to the task at hand. This is effective for those individuals may need a small break between steps to redirect them to their schedule.

Choose an existing schedule to add place holder steps, when extra prompting to complete tasks is desired.

Place holder steps can have any title or image you desire. Whatever works to motivate the individual to move to the next step in the schedule.

Once your place holder image and sound have been saved, switch to User Mode and enable timers using the Options Tray.

Place holder steps only need to be long enough to prompt the individual to move to the next step. Make sure to consider this when recording your audio.
