Our Family Engagement Group have published best practice guidelines for VI Early Intervention.

What is Early Intervention?

VINCYP Standard 11: There is a service within each Health Board (HB), which provides Early Intervention and family support on identification of Visual Impairment (VI). This is defined as a service providing contact by a professional with experience in visual impairment and emotional and practical support for families, within at most 5 working days of referral. This should be available both in the community and in hospital.
