Unfortunately this is an area in which many various abilities come in and without knowing the actual form of illness is it next to impossible to determine from this POV. That said, you mention mentally disabled, so going on this alone, what is the area in which is affected by her illness? Most often serious illnesses such as Schizophrenia, can hamper cognitive skills however if Bipolar, a person can still function cognitively.
If it is a Personality disorder or OCD most often does not affect cognitive skills, same for other forms such as Phobias, Dissociative and Stress related disorders.....And there are half dozen more, but doubtful any would apply in this case.
So from this perspective it is important to understand a few things....can or are any of the following cognitive skills affected?
Ability to pay attention, ability to remember and recall information, ability to process information quickly, ability to respond to information quickly, ability to think critically, plan, organize and problem solve. ability to initiate speech...
..But also motor skills should be considered..is she able to use her physical dexterity, does she suffer from Tics...also known as Tourette's syndrome etc. Visual acuity and so on, anything that she may have difficulty with from a physical aspect. I say this because many who suffer mental illness can become agitated if they have difficulty doing basic physical activities.
These will vary person to person of course, but they can help you determine if she is capable based on her ability or level in which she can perform such skills and if she is lagging in one or more, will they affect basic vaping tasks?
