Thanks for the post Jessica, I checked Optelec's website and couldn't find the info on Mary Warren's kits. I worked with an optometrist once that had attended several of her conferences, so I guess I could try contacting him. Although, I'm not certain whats become of him lately as we had a recent not planned move to a neighboring state. If you could provide further information on these kits it would be appreciated. The program would be part of a hospital outpatient center. I have seen patient's for low vision services in the past, but only in a SNF and home health background. Never had the need for much equipment, but doing this in outpatient is a different story. Jim

The clinic has 2 CCTV's, a reader, filters, all sorts of specs and magnifiers, and all the ADL equipment. Mary Warren has 2 kits with devices, which are available from Optelec (not sure the cost). Would your program be connected to a hospital/health care system? Would you see clients in their homes? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Arceneaux Sent: Sunday, February 25, 2007 7:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OTlist] Start ups Hello everyone, Would anyone on the list be willing to share start up supply lists, etc for: 1. Sensory integration with a geriatric pysch. population? I am specifically interested in a sensory room. What would be your choices on training and/or obtaining the expertise needed to pull this off? 2. An outpatient program for low vision rehabilitation. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
