Will Ecas provide physical support and personal care?
Ecas staff are not trained to provide personal care, nor can they provide physical support (such as support for mobility impaired clients). Clients are welcome to bring their personal assistants, and Ecas may provide a grant to assist in the cost of having a personal assistant for classes. Clients must bring appropriate mobility aids to allow them to move between their transport, the classroom and other facilities unaided. Staff can provide only limited (and not intimate) assistance. Staff have no training in moving and handling.
