Summary Note "In this book, the author describes 'what doesn't work' by outlining the ways in which individuals with intellectual disability may have been damaged by the 'behavioural' approach to their day-to-day actions. She demonstrates what has been missed through this approach: Needs have not been met, individuals have been misdiagnosed, and trauma responses have been triggered through the exclusive use of behavioural controls, both positive and negative. The author then moves on to describe 'what works.' She explores the topics of stabilization, prevention, intervention, and the 'mental health plan.' She proposes a model of behavioural intervention that does not require the use of restraints or contingencies; instead it promotes safety and security and addresses the outstanding issues around trauma. Numerous case studies are discussed." - Back cover.
