A Special Message From Our Founder Diane Thompson, OTR/L
With over 24 years of experience as an Occupational Therapist. I have worked in a variety of settings: rehab hospitals, adult behavior units, long-term care facilities, schools, and home health. However, my focus for the past 10 years has been on low vision occupational therapy. Vision Loss Strategies was started to help and support anyone trying to deal with a visual impairment.
I have had the privilege of meeting some of the most wonderful clients and their families creating cherished memories that will stay with me for a very long time. During my visits, I find that either the client or his/her family are at a loss about how to cope with visual impairment.
Many of my clients report feeling lost when they first receive the news of their lifelong visual impairment. Sometimes, they learn that their vision will either remain stable or regress to a more severe state.
They question whether their independence will be in jeopardy and many say that they feel they have no hope. Depression and withdrawal from family and social events are common among visually impaired individuals. Furthermore, their caregivers feel at a loss about how to help them.
Many of my clients have said that I am giving them HOPE again. And this positive change occurred when I educated them on what they would be able to do with some modifications in their homes. It brings tears to my eyes to know that so many people are feeling hopeless!
The great news is that my clients are happy to know that there is a possibility of being more independent and safe in their homes. They also feel better about themselves.
Education plays a huge role in allowing the visually impaired to live a more enjoyable and satisfying life.
I hope that the quality of your life (or your loved one’s life) improves greatly. I also want you to enjoy the courses and come away from them learning new techniques and strategies to create the best life possible!
