How to assist the disabled【mentally ill and challenged】
|
If they are in a panic, talk to them and make them calm down. Tell them “It’s all right”, “Relax” and that you have come to help. |
|
If exposed to danger, take them to a shelter or a safe place. |
|
When you speak to them, use simple, comprehensive words. |
|
Avoid long dialogues. Try to keep the conversation short- simple questions and answers. Make sure to listen carefully. |
|
Try to contact their family, institutions or workplaces as soon as possible. |
