[Nfbc-info] sweeping changes for blind and visually impaired Kaiser Permanente members

[Eileen Misrahi]

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for sharing. This is a big step forward. As an individual with a DX of RP and having my sight deteriorate while I was employed at Kaiser, it would also be ground breaking to provide low vision rehab to their visually impaired population. As an occupational therapist, I have tried in the past to prmote such a program in So. Cal. This is a great accomplishment though.  

Best,
Eileen
