All great ideas!! I would suggest posting on the AOTA list-serv. I am sure there are OT's who work in hospitals that face the same issues

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..........
