Private social worker for child with structured schedule using ABA
This job I ran into as I noticed a mother experiencing some issues with her non verbal daughter who has autism. I helped her in that moment to get her daughter to stand up as she decided to sit in the middle of the road at a heavy weight, to much to lift and refused to move. Upon using simple ABA techniques and engaging her in a interest based completed demand = desired reward. That “lady” soon after became my employer and I worked for Monday to Friday 2:30 till 9 pm and in the summer 7-7 Monday till Thursday. Each day I followed a daily activity schedule (DAS) that was important for my client as her days were predictable and therefor reduced anxiety leading to a decline in aggressive or combative behaviour. Her DAS included lots of community involvement, news paper delivery and she was a park ambassador until winter came around she only had one job with Oakville beaver (community news paper). Aside from that her engagement outdoors and with others she found similar interests with occupied much of her summer days or after school activities. I assisted with personal hygiene, social and life skills. She always had a goal established by her behaviour therapist, so I would follow her goal orientation and contribution schedule which was included in all activities of daily living ( an example would be to independently get ready in the morning) this obviously requires much smaller goals first to be ready for the ultimate goal that she was challenged with completing based on her cognitive level of understanding the purpose of that goal and her own personal reasons to be motivated to complete it. I also administered her medication and would document as frequently as necessary sometimes even in 5 minute updates depending on the situation but regular logs of my observations on emotional well being her physical activities completed, her goal completion etc. This documentation was what her behavioural therapist requested for charting and documentation purposes. This is also how other members of her muti disciplinary team could recognize and place protocols for certain behaviours that may cause harm to herself or others while also teaching the client emotional management and calming techniques for being able to rely on herself to calm down from stressful situations. Throughout the shifts I would follow a behavioural support protocol as a proactive tool in an reducing behaviours that she has had a past experience with. Then just normal personal assistant with activities of daily living this would include getting ready for bed or getting ready in the morning.

Teachers assistant
Worked one on one with students that I was assigned to. Assisted with personal hygiene, tasks given by the teacher to the student. Followed independent education plan (IEP) that was constructed for a student tailored to their needs regarding his or her developmental disability, learning disability or any student in need of individual support for many different reasons or purposes. Documented each students achievements and daily activities, log sheets, and essentially an overview class to class of the entire session and how that student responded or took part in the class. Documenting emotional well being and any changes noticed that may affect the students ability to come to school and participate with the tasks asked if them.
I had a duty to report any noticed signs of abuse or injury/ informed of by students or anybody known to the student, if for when it was brought to my attention. The protocol for this was clearly written out and singed by myself that I had a clear understanding of my responsibilities for the well being of this child and my obligation to report any and all cases entirely.
This was for legal purposes and to prevent any threat or accusations upon myself. It is a convictabl offence to not report concerning observations, reports, information, findings or evidence.pertaining to the students well being.
