Power Point is accessible.  You shouldn't expect a software to be accessible
to all methods of access.  Power point is highly visual which is precisely
the purpose for its existence.  You can use JAWS to access the product and
with the scripts provided by Henter Joyce you can produce quite good
presentations.  If you aren't seeking a visual presentation, then Power
Point really isn't necessary.  There are any number of ways to create
auditory presentations, and hard copy handouts besides using Power Point.  I
only know of one device (in my limited world) that would be called a Braille
Display screen reader, and I wouldn't think you could use it to create a
Power Point presentation.  You will either need a voice output screen reader
like JAWS, or a sighted assistant to do this activity.  If you don't want
the powerful features found in Power Point, then a simple traditional slide
show would work just as well.
