I have great experience with special needs kids. He was a 13-year-old boy with cerebral palsy and a few other health conditions. I absolutely loved putting a smile on his face every morning. I got him up and ready for the day. His favorite TV show was Sponge Bob. He loved it no matter how many episodes a day his show was, that he could be himself and laugh along with all day. I did a range of various different activities with him starting with general assessments for bruises/scratches, took vital signs, oral care, incontinent care, assisted nurse with AFO'S, Wilbegar method (brush/lotion), joint compression's, range of motion, encouraged him all through therapy with OT, PT, speech, school, and walking in his gait trainer. I preformed task such as grooming him, bed bath/shower, CPT VEST/NEBS, drawing/administering medication via-route G-tube, cleaning/feeding via-route G-tube, called medication in for him, picked up medication/errands, transports, housekeeping work, glasses & neck brac.
