Even though there is an assessment in process,? critical needs should be addressed immediately if there is a safety issue during the assessment time to cover everyone's liability I would think- the schools and the O&M assessor.? If the child is unsafe in general
due to the visual impairment, then modifications should be in place to insure his/her safety until official assessment recommendations are made.??

Hello all,
Do any of you have articles or a liability statement about whether a school is covered liability-wise if a young preschooler who is completely blind does not have O&M instruction and falls or gets hurt?? We are in the process of having the student assessed,
but there is a question also about the need for O&M for a preschooler.
