Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental condition characterised by repetitive and distinctive patterns of behaviour and difficulties with social communication and interactions. People living with ASD have a wide range of symptoms, skills and levels of disability in functioning and communicating with society.
A strong support team that consists of therapists and support workers who communicate effectively is key to assisting you or your family member with ASD. As a result of ASD, your family member may not be able to verbally communicate with you their thoughts, wants and needs.
Finding people who are the right fit for your team is very important to assist you (or your family member). Trying to stay on top of the weekly therapy routine as well as communicating their care requirements to the support team can be overwhelming. As a result you may find yourself feeling lost and burnt out – that’s okay!
