Synopsis

This book focuses on how conceptual models for learning disability nursing can also provide a holistic and person-centred approach to assessment and planning with the person, carers and family. These models for practice are described and illustrated through a variety of case-study examples. Contemporary learning disability policy and practices are also examined across the United Kingdom and Eire, as well as concepts of leadership and management of change, which practitioners in learning disability services can consider adopting if they are to move towards successfully implementing personcentred practices.
