Introduction to Mental Health and Mental Wellbeing for Staff Supporting Adults with Intellectual Disabilities presents a practical guide to the most common health needs among this population. As well as looking at the challenges of accessing healthcare and navigating care pathways, a range of issues are covered including mental health, cancer, epilepsy, respiratory and swallowing problems, and poor sight and hearing - with chapters written by experts in these conditions and their relationship to learning disabilities. The book aims to increase awareness and knowledge of how these issues present themselves, how they can be prevented in the first place, and best practice in assessment and treatment. It will therefore be a valuable resource for health professionals, support workers and families.
