Product Description

Group homes are the dominant form of residential accommodation for people with severe learning or intellectual disabilities, and yet there are significant problems within these living environments. This book seeks to highlight the key issues for both residents and staff, and offers practical suggestions for improving community living. Based on original empirical research and drawing on extensive field notes, the book paints a picture of life in group homes today. The authors propose a framework for increasing community presence and participation, and consider the barriers to be overcome if progress is to be made in achieving these key goals. The notion of 'homeliness', the challenge of maintaining a balance between individual and group needs and the concept of practice leadership are all explored. Group Homes for People with Intellectual Disabilities is essential reading for anyone working with people with learning or intellectual disabilities in residential services, as well as academics and students of disability studies, social work and health and social care programmes.

Group Homes for People with Intellectual Disabilities: Encouraging Inclusion and Participation Review

This book was suggested to me as a good read. This book enhances the development of the institutional culture of staff that fosters self-direction and self-determination in the journey to our work and distils the aspects of the group home climate that must change to further the client / staff goal of achieving a productive care environment unhindered by any impediments due to considerations of gender, race/ethnicity, or any other reason. I have now ensured that all my collegues will be getting it from me, as a gift.
