Out Patient Procedures
ê Community
Based Rehabilitation (CBR) program
It is basically a protective and
rehabilitative program. The program works to rehabilitate the blind to mix them to the main stream
in the society. The people of program area are surveyed to categorize the
nature of problem. If the problem is curable, then the patients are sent to the
hospital for their proper treatment. But if the problem is identified as
incurable they are selected as Visually Impaired (VI). After that, they are
given different types of training to solve their daily problem. At the same
time, they are linked with government and other social welfare organization to
rehabilitate them economically.
In the society most of the visual
Impairment (VI) is the result of our
ignorance, negligence, accidents etc. Through CBR program, people are
making aware to protect VIs and make
them sympathized to the VIs discussing with people through Family Counseling,
Community Meeting, Awareness Workshop, Sensitization Workshop etc.
The visually Impaired people are
treated as the liability though they can act as normal people and the society
is apathetic to give their right as normal people. CBR works for VIs to achieve
their fundamental right in the society.
