Core
responsibilities
Use judgment
and creativity
Not our paid
responsibility
Find things she can do
on her own, G-tube
care, she needs at least
1,500 ccs of fluid a
day and she doesn’t feel
thirsty (you keep
track), she wants to
have an occasional glass
of wine (drinks through
the g-tube), know how
she communicates and
to take the time to
communicate with her,
the last item of clothing
that she puts on must
be put on herself (she
wants to you to set it
up and let her do the
rest)
What you try! (e.g. put
on my sweater, cleaning
cabinet tops, etc.) Help
me find a meaningful
job. Help me find
other ways to
communicate with those
that can’t communicate
with me.
Don’t interfere with
the private time I
spend with my friends.
I don’t need an
interpreter. They are
my friends and we
communicate. Don’t
interfere with how I
choose to handle the
love interests in my
life. I will ask for any
advice I want from
whom I want.
