These exceptional students require specialized care and support due to their unique challenges. Struggling with profound disabilities, they lack independent functioning skills and rely heavily on assistance for basic life activities such as dressing and toileting. Their non-verbal communication further adds complexity to their needs, making it essential for caregivers and educators to intuitively understand and respond to their non-verbal cues. Additionally, their cognitive abilities are akin to that of an infant, requiring a nurturing and patient approach to foster their well-being. In working with these students, the emphasis is on creating a compassionate and inclusive environment that recognizes and caters to their specific needs, promoting a sense of comfort, safety, and dignity in their daily lives.
