People with Profound & Multiple Learning Disabilities Summary

People with Profound & Multiple Learning Disabilities: A Collaborative Approach to Meeting by Penny Lacey (University of Glasgow, UK)

First Published in 1999. This book is designed to be useful to practitioners working with children and adults with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD). It was born out of a need for a practically-based text book for participants on a course devoted to the study of PMLD but became a project to provide discussion of interest to anyone wishing to reflect on their work in this field. It is hoped that the nineteen chapters in this book will provide a broad ranging resource for practitioners who work with children and/or adults with PMLD in education, health, social care and voluntary settings and for those studying on advanced courses.
