| Let him know who you are. Ask if he needs assistance. |
Let him take your arm so he could follow the movement
of your body. Walk half a pace ahead of him. |
Tell him about narrow or crowded places; or if you're
turning right or left. |
When you're approaching steps, tell him if you're going
up or down. |
|

|
| Talk in a normal tone. He's not hard of hearing.
Use words like "see" and "look". He uses them, too. |
Warn him when nearing a door- if it opens toward or away
- left or right. Tell him to shut it after him. |
Show him the chair by putting his hand on the arm or
back of it. Describe objects before him. |
Read the menu to him. Prices, too. Tell him
where his food is on his plate. |
|

|
|
| Talk to him directly, not through a third party.
Do let him do his own talking. |
Going into a car, tell him which way it's facing.
Tell him when you're closing doors so he would not get his fingers caught. |
Tell him when you leave so he won't talk to the "air".
Don't leave him stranded. |
