TIPS FOR CARING FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE BLIND OR VISUALLY IMPAIRED

  • Ask how your patients want materials (recorded, large print [18-point type], via e-mail, etc.). Also, figure out a system that works for the patient to mark medications. For example, have the pharmacist put three rubber bands on a bottle of pills that should be taken three times a day.
  • Always read aloud what you write in the medical record.
