Steve has an ever so interesting conversation with Brian Mackie; representative of Vision Loss Rehabilitation Canada about the challenges of teaching the visually impaired technology and other tasks. Collectively, Steve and Brian cover the use of iphones, smart speakers, computers, braille, and other tasks around the house that might be of use to help clients living a higher quality of life with their disability. Brian is extremely focused and passionate about what he teaches, as Brian is also blind himself. If you know someone who is new to vison loss and needs support with learning how to adapt to blindness, contact Home | Vision Loss Rehabilitation Canada.
