How to care for someone with a learning disability

-Be an effective communicator by using accessible language. Avoid using jargon and long words that may be difficult to understand. Practice using different communication tools, such as easy read symbols, PECS (Picture Exchange Communication Systems) and tablet computers that can make words bigger. Endeavor to be creative, follow cues from the person you’re communicating with and speak at their pace.

-Keep a routine. For certain types of learning disabilities like autism, routine is vital. The absence of routine can provoke feelings of anxiety and uncertainty around the future. Well established routines for persons with autism can help to reduce anxiety and build their confidence as they know what will happen next, how people around them will behave and what they will need to do.

-Be prepared to provide personal support. To care for someone with a learning disability, you may be required to assist with personal care, including eating, drinking, toileting and ensuring levels of hygiene are maintained. Do not forget that needing help in this way can make the person you are caring for feel vulnerable, so make sure to do so in a respectful and dignified way.

-Interact with them. For those with a learning disability, engaging in meaningful activities with them can make a huge difference. It’s important to explore the interests and hobbies of the person you’re caring for, and to facilitate them in a way that creates a sense of independence. Whether it’s cooking a meal, listening to music, visiting a friend or taking a walk in the park, these activities can all lead to an active and enjoyable life for them.

- Be patient and prepared to repeat and explain things because someone with a learning disability finds it difficult to remember things. The following tips may help:

– Break information into bits and give a little at a time

– Give the person a cue to help them remember an intention to do something

– Use calendars, diaries and timetables, and help to adapt them

– Help to write notes and make lists

– Put items in a visible place where they can’t be missed (e.g. by the front door)

– Check what has been remembered and understood
