- Daily Living Support:
Perform sensitive personal care tasks including changing/dressing, eating, diapering/potty training, bathroom assistance, and administering tube feedings or medications as per health plans. - Dignified Assistance:
Ensure all care is done with the highest respect for privacy and age‑appropriateness. - Mobility & Technology:
Assist with student transfers, application of adaptive devices (wheelchairs, standers, gait trainers), and coaching use of high‑ or low‑tech communication devices. - Hygiene:
Maintain strict sanitation protocols and personal protective equipment usage.
- Progress Monitoring:
Record objective data directed by CC teachers for student programming, including IEP goals, developmental milestones, ABC behavior logs, and post‑secondary transition plan metrics. - Communication:

Ensure absolute FERPA/HIPAA compliance regarding all student records. - Multidisciplinary Feedback:
Collaborate with teachers, OT, PT, SLP, and external agencies to provide feedback on effectiveness of modifications. - Operational Readiness:
