Role release relates to which activity?

Role release is about handing off responsibility and making sure the right information moves to the people who will support the student in different settings. In practice, this means the O&M professional shares what the student needs with other professionals so they can reinforce skills and keep the student safe. A concrete example is the teacher identifying points of interest in the school for O&M use; with that information, the student can learn routes, landmarks, and cues in the classroom and hallways, and the teacher can reinforce those strategies as part of daily routines. This collaborative transfer keeps the student’s program consistent across environments and supports independence. The other options focus on medical aspects or general collaboration, not the specific transfer of roles and pertinent information to other professionals for O&M.
