Additional Information: Blindness and low vision can often cause people to lose confidence and impact their ability to get around safely. Orientation and Mobility (O&M) specialists equip people of all ages who are blind or have low vision with the necessary skills and concepts to move safely, efficiently, confidently and independently around an environment.

O&M services assess and train people in the use of mobility aids (such as a white cane) and development of sensory awareness. Orientation to the environment may include moving around the home, travelling to school, catching public transport to work, going bushwalking or generally getting about the community.
