    Description

    Families are sometimes overlooked in the rehabilitation process. Parents, spouses, children, and extended family or friends often experience an emotional adjustment to their family member’s vision diagnosis. During this presentation, participants will learn about the adjustment process of family members and how to partner with them to maximize outcomes of services.

    Learning Objectives:

    • Participants of this session will be able to identify how vision impairment and blindness affect family members.
    • Participants will learn strategies for making family members part of rehabilitation/service.
    • Participants will learn tips for dealing with difficult family situations.
    This session is presented by Kendra Farrow.
