What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 17, 2026
A professional reference book covering strategies for teaching orientation and mobility (O&M) skills to older adults who are experiencing vision loss, often for the first time. It's written for O&M specialists, rehabilitation teachers, occupational therapists, and others who support older clients navigating new or progressive blindness — not for the individual with vision loss to use directly. The book addresses the specific challenges of working with this population, where age-related factors like cognitive changes, physical limitations, and adjustment to late-onset vision loss intersect with traditional O&M instruction. This is a print edition sold made-to-order, so expect 10–14 business days before it ships, and sales are final.
