Toileting

Toileting is a significant area of need for many individuals with profound autism, and it often presents unique challenges. Difficulties may stem from communication barriers, sensory sensitivities, medical considerations, or the complexity of the routines involved. Because toileting is such an essential life skill, delays in this area can affect health, independence, and quality of life for both the individual and their caregivers.
