Self-help groups of elderly persons who had been blind for several years met by phone for short-term problem solving and discussion of coping methods. Task-centered assignments helped the majority meet their goal of decreasing feelings of hopelessness and increasing social activities outside of the home. Improved affect and development of new social role skills were attributed to the brief intervention. The key clinical implication is to emphasize outpatient rehabilitation follow-up using cognitive behavioral techniques.
