UNASSIGNED: Respite workers (RW) commonly care for @entity1 with @entity717 ( @entity717 ), and @entity158 is common for these @entity1 . Little is known about factors which inform @entity158 assessment and management-related decisions. OBJECTIVES: To describe/determine the following in response to a series of @entity158 -related scenarios (e.g., @entity10 , falling): (1) factors considered important by RW when assessing @entity1 with @entity717 's @entity158 ; (2) whether @entity1 's verbal ability impacts @entity158 assessment factors considered; (3) RW assessment and management approach. @entity1 : Fifty-six RW (18-67 years, Mage=33.37, 46 female). PROCEDURE/MEASURES: In an online survey, @entity1 read and responded to six vignettes manipulating @entity1 verbal ability (verbal, nonverbal) and @entity158 source. RESULTS: The factors most frequently considered when assessing @entity158 were @entity1 behavior (range: 20-57.4%), and history (e.g., @entity158 , general; 3.7-38.9%). Factors did not vary by @entity1 's verbal ability. RW indicated varied assessment and management-related actions (range: 1-11) for each scenario. DISCUSSION: Findings suggest: a) factors informing @entity158 assessment did not depend on whether or not the @entity1 was verbal and b) a degree of flexibility in RW response to @entity158 across situations. While these findings are encouraging, ensuring RW have adequate @entity158 assessment and management knowledge specific to @entity1 with @entity717 is critical.
