Suggestions for Using the Sample Attendant's Task List


We have included a detailed example from someone who requires many types of assistance for his busy life. Barry's list and schedule from Skip De Graff's book is how he began to organize his PA's tasks. Take a look at what he did and transfer your information to the form we have provided (or get inspired to make up a form more to your liking). Ours is very generic to get you on your way and you may come up with a far better one. If you do, let us know so we can pass it on as we develop our Toolkit for other PAS (personal attendant services) users.
