How to write a care for people with learning disability?

Answer 1

Your question is vague, but I'll give it a shot.

I think you're referring to a "care plan". The idea of a care plan is very broad, and is usually tailored to an environment. For example, patients in a hospital have a "patient care plan", students in school have a care plan referred to as an Individualized Education Plan (IEP), and residents in a psychiatric facility have a mental health care plan.

In addition, the term "learning disability" has a range of meaning: in Europe, this may refer to a profoundly mentally retarded individual as learning disabled (profound MR is an IQ below 20). In the US, a learning disability refers to an individual that has otherwise normal intelligence, but a specific disability with reading, writing, or math (this is simplified).

I did find a good example of a care plan for patients with learning disabilities from a site in the UK. It is currently only available through google cache, but I was very pleased with the content. http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:sNp...

The page has an information section, and a template for a care plan for a person with a learning disability.
