Tell me if I’m wrong for this.
So I work at a retirement home and we have someone who is autism. So today I was training two people and the later the girl who have autism came in the two people I was training was working on a task I gave them and I told the girl could she go upstairs to take orders for the residents for their meal it was maybe 10 papers she said “Do I have to do all of them?” I said yes please this is the only thing that’s left to do and you were the one who came in a 3 we all was here since 7 this morning. She said okay and she came back a few minutes later and I asked did you do them all? She said yes. But let me give out the whole story with her going upstairs to take orders when she first started she refused to do it she said she felt uncomfortable, she cried and just wouldn’t do it when I was training her trying to get a routine going with her. I had no choice but to go at her pace and kept trying once and a while to go upstairs with her to get her comfortable then try to get her to do them alone she wouldn’t but I still kept trying but last week I gave her like 3 papers to do on her own and she did it then I gave her a few more and did it without a problem I told her how proud I was of her. Then today she did the papers but she left 3 undone and put them on the table and said nothing about some being incompleted when I asked did you finish. When I saw it was some left incomplete I ask why she said one resident was dirty and the other ones she felt uncomfortable going in their room. I said we can’t neglect the residents like this they have to eat and by you not doing them they won’t get any food because their paper wasn’t filled out on what they wanted. I said it’s not fair to any of us that we have to go backtrack because you just didn’t want to them when we all was here all day. A lot of times we have to go over some stuff she didn’t want to do and my manager said we have to work on that with her which I am she’s been there like 4 or 5 months now and when she doesn’t want to do something it’s always pushed to the side and I just wanted her to know it’s not okay everyone has a task to do and I’ve been very patient and working with her on getting comfortable but then it will fall on someone else lap because she didn’t want to do it and I’m speaking as if I’m not there. What if I’m off and she does this and she’s working a shift with a new person we all have to push our weight regardless and I want to treat her like anyone else. She cried because I said something to her and I gave her a hug before I left explaining to her I’m not mad with her I just want you to feel comfortable. I don’t want nobody saying you didn’t do this or that if I’m not here. I want you to do your best when you’re here.
