Do you know how to give medical attention to a patient with autism who:
- Can’t answer your questions or identify levels of pain?
- Refuses to have blood drawn, give urine a sample, do dialysis or CT/MRI scan?
- Attempts to pull out lines or pull off bandages?
- Fights you off with piercing screaming and flapping of the arms?
- Can’t tolerate your touch and or make eye contact with you?
- Won’t stop running out of the treatment room?
- Refuses medication?
Whether the medical appointment is scheduled or it’s a trip to the emergency room the hospital can be a sensory minefield for someone with autism causing them to spiral toward a terrifying meltdown. Sedation and four-point restraint are not practical solutions.
Your connection to your autism patient will depend upon how quickly you can move into their world. Through case examples, videos and lively class discussion you will walk away with practical strategies for successful medical treatment of an individual with autism, such as:
- Hospital/EMT equipment to help support sensory needs
- Overcoming the most common sensory triggers
- Communication cards, checklists and Apps as visual supports
- Social stories to break down hospital/EMT procedures
- Navigate ER triage, routine hospital visits, labs and tests
- What to do when a meltdown occurs
- Calming techniques

A clinician at heart, Susan has personally provided treatment for children as young as nine months, on up. She has had the pleasure of working with some individuals and their families for over 20 years.
Susan is a national presenter teaching treatment strategies for autism to rehab professionals, mental health clinicians and educators.

Years of professional experience backs up her ability to speak on this subject with conviction and passion.
Susan has made five Operation Smile mission trips; four to the Philippines and one to Africa.
