I have hands-on experience working with individuals who are deafblind and who have differing abilities. I am certified in First Aid and CPR. I have taken courses where I have learned about sighted guide, activity and program planning, human growth and development, circumstances regarding individuals who are medically fragile, and anatomy. I have had a placement was at Bloorview School Authority where I was working with individuals who are lower functioning that although are not deafblind greatly benefit from some of the strategies taught within the program. Such as the use of hand under hand, basic ASL, calendar systems, being able to adapt an activity to meet the personal needs of the individual etc. I’ve worked with a variety of individuals from the ages of birth-65+. I strongly believe that every place has something to offer and am actively seeking an opportunity where I can apply the knowledge I have gained but also learn additional skills and information.
