What is a Vision Rehabilitation Specialist?

Vision Rehabilitation Specialists are professionals who are qualified to support visually impaired adults to enable and empower them to lead independent and fulfilling lives. We support adults who have acquired or have congenital vision impairment to live independently. In addition, we help our clients to access support and adapt new skills with mobility, life skills in the home (including personal care), communication skills, use of technology, housing, finance and social activities which are important to the individual. We support our clients to develop and maintain the independence and confidence they need to progress through life in the home, at work, socially or in higher or further education. Our work includes delivering training, support and coaching to develop the life skills needed to live independently, communicate effectively, travel safely and to build and maintain relationships.
