As written by the client
I do not require much support during the night but on occasion I may need help to change position. However, in the daytime I will need quite a bit of support with activities such as cooking, dressing and getting out and about including assisting with placement with my accessible vehicle, in addition, when out and about I will also need help with navigating around unfamiliar environments and I may also need assistance eating and drinking if I am unable to reach the table or if I am tired.
I enjoy eating and have a varied diet but you will have to cook and prepare my meals in addition to cutting my food up before I eat it.
When youre not needed you can just relax or do your own thing.
I hope thats given you an idea of what working with me will be like.
