Oxford handbook of learning and intellectual disability nursing [E-book] - 2nd ed. - Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2018 - 1 online resource : - Oxford handbooks in nursing .

Previously issued in print: 2018.

This new edition has been fully updated, with a greater focus on older people with learning and intellectual disabilities and mental health issues, as well as bringing all recommendations in line with current guidelines. Since the first edition of this book was published, services for people with learning disabilities and their families have become more community-based, and the demography of the population of people with learning disabilities has changed to include many older people, and children and young adults with complex physical health needs. This handbook provides clear information for readers on practical steps that may be taken to actively engage with people who have learning disabilities, to enable effective care in which they are involved as much as possible with decisions that affect them.
