Blind women train to become medical transcribers in Florida
In Jacksonville, three blind women study medical terminology and transcription at St. Luke's Hospital under educational director Gerald Head. The six month course covers 10 000 terms with 30 hours weekly of tapes, Latin Greek derivations, and dictation practice to simulate real pressures. The program began in May and is the nation’s only hospital based program for the blind.
