Adjustments and Aids for Working with Disabled People.

There are a variety of adjustments and aids that can assist people with different disabilities. If possible, always try to find out from the individuals concerned what would be their personal preference before making any adjustments or providing aids. Do not assume that people with the same disability require adjustments or aids, or that they would all want the same thing.
