I feel it’s part of our job to be able to determine the difference between behaviour that is associated with our clients conditions and not get so upset and take things personally. There’s a huge difference between directive abuse from anyone not just clients compared to a behaviour type associated with a neurological disabilities.
I am also a D.S. Worker and I’ve been trained for 4+ weeks . 3 And a half trained in different classes plus on sight training at the different homes. 😊
As a person with AUDHD, (ASD and ADHD) I can confirm this. Their (as in support workers) so used to being around physically disabled clients they forget how to speak to non physically disabled clients with that same tone if voice. It's very degrading and that's why it's always best to let them know that you are not comfortable with how your being treated or spoken to. My reason is the baby talk and the condending tone of voice that makes you feel degraded or embarassed to even be in public... It's really not necessary to speak to us like that show us some respect ya know

Thank you for sharing your hardships much appreciated 😁 I'm looking forward to being a support worker😉
They're all beautiful people. I feel upset because of the struggle they're going through. But then, they're so brave.
Oh really? You walk away any time you want. And you get paid for working with these people.
He's awesome!

Never let down disabled .there should be presentation of disabled in the UN to raise their voice

Oh the comments? No one here knows anything about disability. That’s the problem with disability services they are not trained .
