Inhaltsangabe

Supporting People with Learning Disabilities in Health and Social Care is a reflective and evidence-based book that will equip students and professionals with the knowledge and skills they need. Chapters discuss core issues, while a case-study approach ensures a solid grounding in practical skills. This practical element is further reinforced by the inclusion of service-user and practitioner 'voices', whose lived experiences make the book even more engaging, as well as a range of reflective exercises and regular opportunities for readers to self-audit their learning.
