Autistic young adult requires frequent 2:1 to 3:1 supports, as needed during behavioral or medical emergencies. Home health care staff ratio needed NOT yet provided by state of California. Family still in negotiations. Case should be a NO BRAINER for anyone involved in discerning if this is the kind of unique, aytpical case that requires at LEAST 24/7 1:1 in-home family support. autismus EMS law enforcement autism awareness educational videos autisme “autismul” “awtismo” “nursing” “nurses” “caregivers” “cna” “lvn” case law least restrictive environment “disablity rights” “california” “protection and advocacy” “los angeles” “san diego” “sacramento” “autism legislative taskforce” “autism news” “autism facts” “statistics” “research” “case study” “attorneys” “lawfirms” “litigation” “advocates” “injury” “judges” “decisions” Autistic boy’s mother may sue state california pervasive failure to provide adequate services to autistic boy with extreme self-injurious behaviors and seizure disorder leaves family exhausted in constant battle for proper in-home support and relief. Family forced to create behavioral and nutritional plans due to state “experts” repeatedly failing to provide or meet extraordinary needs of this autistic person. It’s simply unreal that after the family has had to pick up where all the “professionals” dropped the ball, they are insulted and tormented with lack of proper home supports.
Senate Committee on Appropriations: California Case of extraordinary home care and support needed for autistic adult who slams fists into his head (self-injurious behavior) and has seizure issues. Video coverage of California’s failure to secure this family proper home supports in what experts call, “one of the most severe and complex cases of autism and self-injury seen.” Cost of providing HOME health care even at 24/7 is THOUSANDS of dollars LESS than costly out-of-home placement. So, it makes sense, in cases like this, where a family is willing to care for their family member, that funds would be available to help this win win situation work. Furthermore, consider NURSES who are leaving hospitals and nursing homes to do HOME HEALTH cases like this. This is a coveted job for many nurses. They want the 1:1 patient care, instead of being saddled with impersonal care of 35 patients in a nursing home or hospital ward. It’s also a BOOT camp for nurses. If you can work here, you can work anywhere.
