There aren’t enough if any Orientation and Mobility Therapists in the country!
That means there is no one to instruct visually impaired children and adults.
So I am going to post links for people to explore this profession.

Imagine being in a preschool or play group or classroom with teachers who are not trained to adjust lessons to best work with vision impaired children…very quickly people would make assumptions about your abilities.

If anyone has interest or children who might be interested this is a great field

The good moms do
Jorge’s parents are different: mother’s rights were terminated and the father only pays attention to the normal sibling
That’s why the nurses, myself, and OT are pledged and committed…we’ve got him…none will ever leave him
The night nurse retired this year but won’t leave him
