He has PICA, he elopes and likes to climb to high places. He has physical aggression and self-injurious behaviors. He needs to be spoken to in a calm voice, encourage use of supportive technology, redirection, engagement in fun activities (such as jumping on the trampoline, playing outside or going on car rides). He needs complete assistance for taking medications and help with scheduling and taking to appointments. He requires assistance to complete hygiene routine and needs support during bathing and to be close by if help is needed while toileting. It is important for staff to be close by at all times, offer redirection, be consistent with his routine, ensure reminders and support are given and help with managing appointments and medication. Mom prefers a provider that is athletic as he is young and likes to be active outside.  She wants staff to jump and play with him.
