Reviews

This is a pocket-sized guide to caring for clients with learning/intellectual disabilities ... The best aspects of the book are the size and the format, which makes it easy to browse. The many bulleted lists make it useful as a quick reference ... a wonderful resource for students and nurses. * Laura Kelly, Doody's *
