Autism: Meltdowns & Shutdowns
On 5 June @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Dealing with meltdowns and shutdowns can be the hardest part of a PA’s job. The individual you support has lost behavioural control; you are probably in a public place; you must balance safety and dignity to bring this incident to a conclusion…
During this session we will discuss:
- The difference between an Autistic meltdown, a shutdown and an emotional outburst.
- The factors that can trigger a meltdown or shutdown.
- The impact on the Autistic individual and the person assisting them.
- How to support the individual during and after a meltdown or shutdown.
This training will be delivered by Aspens, in person at our Worthing office, and is fully funded for PAs.
You must be logged into the website to book places.
