Intellectual Disability Among Children Everywhere (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780993502347)

'Intellectual Disability Among Children Everywhere' is the 4th manual in the Children Everywhere series. This manual specifically addresses the special care needs of children with intellectual disabilities, in a way that is relevant both for people running children's homes and for people training specialised foster carers or small group home carers. Part 1 of the book helps you understand what intellectual disability means and the physical and behavioural issues that you are likely to encounter, as well as giving advice on how to handle these and how to help the children become as independent as possible. Part 2 gives information about commonly associated conditions such as cerebral palsy, Down's syndrome, autism, seizure disorders and mental health problems. In Part 3 the management and care structures that are necessary for adequate care for children with special needs are discussed. The aim of the book is to improve the health and quality of life of the children and to give them a better future.
