Hi Jeanne Marie, Thanks for your kind words! Actually we are planning a seminar in Las Vegas in October this year and later in Seattle, but because we have not yet confirmed with our host facilities, we have not placed the information on the website. If you are in the Tucson, AZ area then you are very close to the ACVREP headquarters, which is an awesome organization dedicated to educating professionals in the field of low vision. You can check them out on their website, www.acvrep.org I hope to meet you again and please feel free to contact me if you need any help--I am sure you are doing a stellar job at your facility-- Take care, Orli

I unfortunately cannot go as I am already planning to go to Conference, and an interactive metronome course in March. Your courses last year in Charlotte NC were awesome! Are you planning any seminars in the Las Vegas or Phoenix area? I am very interested in Low Vision Rehab and have started working on my hours for AOTA specialty certification. Finding a mentor in Kingman Az for low vision is non-existent..(hence the need for my skill set). I eventually want to specialize in this area apart from my current position in an acute care hospital. Any pointers/tips etc are appreciated. I am currently working on issues with call lights in the hospital as even sighted, older medicated clients cannot utilize them effectively. Additionally, I am also working with the dietitians and dietary department on producing a low vision menu so that those w/low vision can more independetly choose their own meals. The current system is awful--light blue squares that are small (reminiscent of SAT bubbles) with light blue words on a white background..........
