visual scrolling with screen readers

I often share my screen reader findings with sighted developers. Sometimes focus is not visually on the screen so the sighted folks don't know where I am on the page.

Is there a prescribed method for jumping visual focus to the same point that screen reader focus is?

In JAWS I thought JAWSKey+ctrl+delete was supposed to do this but it doesn't always work.

Any suggestions for consistently showing where screen reader focus is?

Much appreciated,
David
