show super heightened responses to sensory inputs and often cannot tolerate “regular” environments
Medical, health, safety and daily living manifestations go undetected … and untreated … far more than
the general population This program will help understand the reasons for, preventative measures for and

• social inclusion and modeling considerations
• behavior
• daily living skills / compliance at home
• eating / sleeping / toileting
• Playtime Therapy / ABA Therapy / NET / Incidental Teaching / Floor Time / SonRise / Experiential
Therapy / Errorless Teaching

• the environment = adapted medical/healthcare environments = having an autism friendly

Imperative for anyone working with … living with … or wanting to work with children / adolescents /
young adults / adults with Autism.
Valuable for anyone allied to the field.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES :
• Learn what Autism is, how it impacts the individual, the family and your
role as a Healthcare or
Service Provider.
This presentation is intended to provide information about how characteristics of ASD
influence communication & behavior and how those characteristics result in deficits in self-care for the
person living with ASD. Issues reviewed will include skills needed for effective communication and why
and when these are impaired for children/youth/adults with ASD, difficulties can occur.
• Learn how to understand Sensory Issues and Adapted Environments.
This presentation will include
information about sensory differences that may be present in children/youth/adults with ASD. It will
include a review of behaviors that may be related to over-responsiveness/under-responsiveness to sensory
input as well as sensorimotor integration issues that may impact motor planning and coordination.
Information and strategies to support improved participation will be discussed.
• Learn how you can increase compliance – working with families – working with
school teams – and at the
individual’s home. The link between ASD, behaviors and compliance.
This presentation explores basic
principles of behavior, including the nature of reinforcement, behavior function, and how behavior is
strengthened to increase the likelihood it will happen again (or not happen again).
• Learn how to deal with challenging behaviors and overcome communication
barriers when dealing with
people with Autism.
This presentation will include plans for behavior change with ways to improve
caregivers and providers’ overall well-being along with the well-being of the person with ASD;
strategies for preventing problem behaviors; and lastly, what to do when problem behavior occurs to
reduce the likelihood of strengthening it or escalating, to help insure the health & safety of all
involved.
• Learn how “Video Modelling” can be used successfully with Autism.
This presentation will include
general information about intervention approaches to support communication development. Specifically,
Video Modelling for use for many health, medical and daily living aid related issues.
