You don't. A player setting a blind screen must expect to be run into with potentially extreme force. If he doesn't want to get hit, he shouldn't set the screen. As long as the screenee, upon contact, stops or diverts the screenee has not fouled...even if ambulances are called. The screen has served it's purpose if the defender is forced to stop or change directions, even if they are subsequently able to get back into the play.
