| About Our Lesson TapesThe subjects covered by our curriculum of 13 audio taped lessons have been chosen to provide instruction in the fundamental areas of daily living skills and mobility. They specifically target those issues that most often impact independent living and the quality of life for older adults with adventitious vision impairments, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, cataracts, and other diseases affecting the retina. Four of the lessons teach adaptive skills that are used in the kitchen and in the preparation of food. The ability to get around both in the house and when going out is covered by two mobility lessons. Personal care is the subject of three tapes that cover grooming, doing the laundry, and managing medications. One of the lessons teaches techniques which help avoid embarrassment when dining with others and another lesson delivers practical advice on using the telephone. Additionally, the introductory lesson will always accompany the first tape that is sent to a new client. This introduction explains how to most effectively utilize the lessons and discusses the audio tape cassette player.
HOW E.A.R.S. WORKSJust call our toll free telephone number. You'll talk with a vision counselor who will determine which lesson tapes are appropriate for you to begin with. The lessons are designed for use in the privacy of your home. Within a week you'll receive free of charge your first lessons. They are recorded on standard size audio tape cassettes, so there's no need for special equipment. We do not require any designation of legal blindness, and your call is strictly confidential. |
