Mobility means movement. When orientating and moving from one place to another, there are three questions you need to consider:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Where am I?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Where am I going?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How do I get there?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can Eikholt offer you in orientation and mobility?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We offer orientation and mobility training for people with combined visual and hearing impairments. You will gain knowledge of techniques and be trained in useful tools so that you can strengthen your orientation and mobility skills. The training will promote independence in everyday life. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our individual courses are based on your conditions and needs, and the content is drawn up together with you and, if applicable, your carers. If you wish, we can also involve local counsellors or other agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The course can be held at Eikholt, your workplace, at school or at your home. The duration is 2-4 days, but the course can also be organised as individual days spread over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Examples of course content:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use of vision and hearing in orientation and mobility &nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use of mobility stick, GPS, mobile phone and apps, filter glasses and binoculars&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/visioneers.no\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Echolocalisation<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Companion techniques&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/en\/the-knowledge-vault\/mobility-and-orientation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Guide dog and haptic signals to support orientation and mobility<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you want courses? <\/strong>You can find the form here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/en\/application-form-for-individual-courses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enquiry individual course<\/a>The queen looked on with tears in her eyes as her daughter prepared to sail away.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you have any questions? <\/strong>You can find the contact form here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/en\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact us<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here you can read about our group courses: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/en\/course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Group course<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interested in more information about Eikholt?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Download the app Info Screen Go in the App Store or Google Play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the code <strong>Eikholt80<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"230\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-230x300.png\" alt=\"QR code to Google Play or App-store to get the Go info screen\" class=\"wp-image-2763\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-230x300.png 230w, https:\/\/www.eikholt.no\/app\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 230px) 100vw, 230px\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-897","service","type-service","status-publish","hentry","cat-service-aktiviteter-i-dagliglivet","cat-service-orientering-og-mobilitet"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Orientering og forflytning n\u00e5r b\u00e5de syn og h\u00f8rsel er nedsatt - Eikholt<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Vi tilbyr oppl\u00e6ring innen orientering og mobilitet.
