Lucy has cerebral palsy, developmental delay and requires adult support for all her care needs. She is a wheelchair user; the house is fully adapted to meet her needs, including hoists. Lucy is fed via a PEG, with a fully blended diet. Her epilepsy is well managed with medication, but she can experience seizures of varying strength/lengths.
