All people with learning disabilities are entitled to the same high standard of care as people who do not have a learning disability and to have their health and care needs met in full.

The book covers a wide range of issues and aims to:
Written in a jargon-free style, the book has numerous practical examples and case studies to help the reader frame the special requirements of the learning disabilities patient in the healthcare setting.
This book will help nurses and carers improve their understanding of learning disability and provide the high quality care to which people with learning disabilities are entitled.
