Always treat them with respect and dignity
It is best to focus on what the person can do, rather than what they can’t. Promote positive thinking and encourage them to complete tasks they are comfortable with.
Be a good listener and always have a friendly manner
Having patience is key. Support and accept that the person may be incorrect with certain things, but don’t always be so quick to correct them on everything.
