Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since the person is blind, they will not be able to see your physical gestures such as approaching them from behind or petting their guide dog. It is important to identify yourself by name and title when you enter their room so that they are aware of your presence and can communicate with you. Touching their arm may startle them and should be avoided unless necessary for assistance.
