Description

Young adult male with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and ASD is preferably looking for a nurse, but at least a CNA who can administer medication through his J tube and transfer him to and from his wheelchair, to take him out in the community (in our personal accessible van) to programs that interest him. Spencer will mostly use his AAC for communication purposes because of his anxiety. He has a lot of medical complexities which are just as debilitating as his ASD. And yet, Spencer is funny and bright and smiles through his constant pain.
