Topic: Eye Care
We tend to overlook the vision and dental needs of individuals homebound. We, as do they, become preoccupied with their major health concerns and forget others. Northern Ireland's Department of Health has fixed that, according to a post on OptometryToday. "Care home staff now have access to a set of ‘standards’, many of which will already be in place, to help ensure that those in their care have access to the best quality of eye care available. The guidelines include best practice for optometric care and treatment ensuring accessible, flexible and responsive services which are safe and effective."
