Below are some practical ways to make information accessible to people who are deafblind:

• Check with the individual or their support person what format they would like the information to be presented in
• If a person uses Braille, information can be transcribed and produced by using a Braille embosser connected to a computer
• If a person can read large print, the font size in a document can easily be increased
• Telephone typewriter (TTY) devices communicate directly with each other similar to a conventional telephone
• Information can be recorded onto a cassette or video tape
• There are interpreter and note taking services
• The Internet and mobile phone SMS (short messaging service) are used
• Services can assist by providing clear signs at the front of the organisation, around and in lifts, toilets and reception areas.
