One Day In School For Special Needs Children Erika Jantzen

Anyone who works in a setting where autistic children are moved to after other settings have failed them horribly will find something to relate to in this short book. This book will show you these are the kinds of things people who are going into direct care for troubled children need to know before they take the job. As bad as people think it might be to work there, it might be a hundred times worse. There are a lot of problems such as poor training, poor management support, and lack of consistency.
A first-hand account of a day in the life of a direct-care worker. Join the author as he recounts the many kicks, bites, poo-slinging, and various other hazards encountered daily in the human services field (that's not to mention the less-than-enthusiastic coworkers). Every special needs child deserves the best of care. The same goes for every direct care worker who's honestly doing the best they can. Human services is a field that needs a revolution in order to achieve evolution. The author hopes that you will come away with a similar conclusion, as well as motivation to try and do what you can to help to bring human services to a quality profession providing the necessary care to those who need it most.
