I am a paramedic, and I have also worked as an aide with special needs individuals in a school and work setting. I am comfortable with just about every spectrum of special needs. I am particularly good with autistic individuals. I am trained in using picture communication, and can bring some of my own to assist with communication. I also know very basic sign language. I am comfortable with assisting in hygiene needs, can use most adaptive devices, such as wheelchairs, lifts, communication devices. I am comfortable administering meds, utilizing suction, and working around vents.
