Rehabilitation

Having a visual disability does not necessarily mean being dependent. A lot can still be achieved by acquiring skills and using other senses. Visio supports and counsels partially sighted and blind people in this sometimes difficult process. The basic approach is to live as independently as possible. Professional advice about disability assistance products and practical training is part of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation can take place at home or in a Visio rehabilitation centre.

For intensive rehabilitation in an internal ward, you can stay at Visio Het Loo Erf in Apeldoorn (information in Dutch).

Rehabilitation at Visio

Even with having a visual disability, you can still function independently. Visio supports and counsels you in relearning to use your capabilities and in acquiring skills. This could apply to every day activities, such as getting dressed, making coffee, cleaning, as well as skills in the area of mobility, free-time spending, education, paid or voluntary work. Rehabilitation can take place at home, in one of our facilities, or for a temporary internal stay, at Visio Het Loo Erf in Apeldoorn.
