I learned this lesson the hard way in 1988. I started working in Personnel at Oak Hill after working seven years in direct care and as a group home manager. I put an advertisement in the Hartford Courant for, “Staff needed to work with blind individuals.” My supervisor told me that I should have worded it, “Staff needed to work with individuals who have visual impairment.” She discussed what your writing explained in a gentle way as she could see my distress in making this mistake.
