Tips For The Sight-Impaired?

Type 1 and LADA

Hi there,

Does anyone have some ingenius tips for my co-worker’s mom, who is legally blind and has Type I diabetes?

My co-worker has asked me specifically for advice regarding storing pre-drawn syringes in such a way that her mother will know which one to take at the correct time (she can administer her own injectons). She mentioned keeping them in the fridge, but I don’t know that they necessarily need to be stored there.

Any thoughts are very much appreciated. Thanks all!

This is far from Ingenious but how about storing them in different drawers close to each other and telling her mom to count the drawer’s and what each drawer holds? Like 2 drawers down holds this much insulin and 3 drawer’s down holds this Etc.
