Disabled children who are unable to live at home are doubly needy:
in addition to their disability, they are deprived of normal family
life. Children who do not grow up in a stable, nurturing
environment are unlikely to achieve their potential. Moreover,
disabled children often have complex medical problems. Disabled
children living away from home are often involved with many
different professionals: although individually these professionals
may provide appropriate support, the sum of their efforts rarely
adds up to the actions of a 'good' parent. The book considers the
key issues that must be addressed when disabled children move from
the family home to new accommodation. It provides insights into the
difficulties that these children face and looks at how the
standards of care that they receive might be improved. It also
makes suggestions about how professionals might work more
effectively with each other and with the children's care-givers.
