Accessible phone help

Hi my uncle has very limited movement and requires a phone or app that will respond to his voice, but his speech is also very slow so Siri and Hey Google don’t give him enough time to speak.
can anyone recommend a specialised phone/app or add on device that will enable him to make and answer calls?
if there was a switch with only one big button he may be able to use that, but many big button phones don’t have voice recognition too.

Thank you for any advice,

Hi @EllieVic
This isn't something I know a huge amount about. When I searched online, I found that Google have a Voice Access feature, which allows you to use voice commands to control your phone. Is that the kind of thing he's looking for? If not, I can do some further investigation...
