Product Information
Considering the design and introduction of comprehensive services for people with mental handicaps, this text emphasizes dynamic and interactive models between the needs of service users, their families, the communities in which they live and the staff who work with them. Consequently every person involved in sharing opportunities with people with mental handicaps has a personal responsibility and an active part to play in realizing more appropriate services. Management, monitoring and evaluation to assure quality are also considered with practical examples of how to set up home, prepare people with mental handicaps and their carers to live and work in community-based services. The book presents practical examples of the service systems and processes and their implementation which are prerequisites to ensure that service users have a valued life style.Product Identifiers
