I am a healthcare professional just started my career as a paramedic. I have joined this forum to learn new things, share my experience in the industry and build a network of likeminded people. I get many calls from disabled patients. I really enjoy to help people with disability. In my opinion, this is the best job one can have. What do you think guys?
I am in charge of collecting my grandmother's disability aids.

Hi @helloworld1990tim, and welcome to the community! Have a look around and do let us know if we can be of any assistance.

Well, if the person is autistic, expect some resistance, if they’re freaking out, it might be a meltdown. Stay calm in that way. With people with muscle conditions, be careful what to do with the muscles. I find that trying to play with joints can cause me to have muscle spasms.
