Support to access the community safely -- maintaining awareness of sensory triggers such as crowds and noise. Communicate clearly and calmly, using short, straightforward sentences and allowing her time to process information. Build a positive working relationship based on trust, respect, and consistency. Keep accurate daily notes and communicate effectively with the wider support team.
