JOB DESCRIPTION
A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF
I am a 13-year-old young man living in the RHYDYFELIN area with my family. I am looking for PAs to assist me out in the community as I like to be out and about doing things I love including walking around parks, swimming, going to the beach, and maybe stopping for my lunch on the way home. I would like to go to the trampoline park too, but in the quiet times.
I have sensory processing disorder, Pica, and Severe Autism which means that I can get very anxious at times and may try to hurt myself. I can lash out, pinch, shout, and find things very overwhelming. I wear ear defenders at all times as I don’t like loud noises or being around big crowds.
I am nonverbal but can say certain words that you will understand and be able to communicate with each other. I am double incontinent, so personal care is needed.
I like to go at my own pace in life and don’t like to be pushed into doing anything, but I am willing to let the PAs make some decisions on what we do when we are together.
