This classic text presents current best practice in the multi professional care of people with intellectual disabilities. It has been planned so that it can be used as a 'ready reference' on what each discipline contributes and as a literature source. Most importantly, it provides benchmarks for quality of care. It can be used as a manual in primary health care, in hospital settings, and in resource centres.
As institutions close and community care develops, there is a new thrust to educate primary health care professionals to work in different ways and with a wider range of clients. The book has therefore been largely rewritten to address health needs in this changing context. However, with its strong practical emphasis and a first class team of writers, the book remains a key introductory text.
