What is a Personal Care Attendant? Is this a service offered by the Office of Disability Services?
A personal care attendant is utilized by some students to assist with daily living skills such as personal hygiene, grooming, medication monitoring, food preparation, along with some physical tasks. Personal care attendants are not provided by the university. It is a student’s responsibly to assess their abilities and to make all necessary arrangements for acquiring and maintaining services from a personal care attendant. Please visit the Personal Care Attendant page for more information.
