Supporting Personal Care

Educational Assistants will work with learners with a range of exceptionalities, including physical and medical. In order to successfully support learners who present these exceptionalities students will require a specific type of knowledge base including, but not limited to, feeding techniques, safe handling, toileting, positioning and transferring techniques, as well as assistive devices and mobility aids. Through workshops, research, and hands-on training, students will be equipped to successfully support learners with physical and medical exceptionalities in a safe and secure educational setting.
