This book is the third in a series with the International
Association for the Scientific Study of Intellectual Disabilities
(Series Editor: Matthew P. Janicki). These publications are
designed to address the issues of health, adult development and
aging among persons with intellectual disabilities.
For many years it has been recognized that some adults with
intellectual disabilities are at elevated risk for mental and
behavioral health problems. Often the aging process can complicate
the identification, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of this
type of dual diagnosis and present complex challenges to clinicians
and carers. This book is designed as a practical resource for those
involved with the support, care and treatment of persons with
intellectual disabilities, and should prove particularly useful as
this community achieves increased longevity. The book is divided
into three parts: Prevalence and Characteristics; Diagnosis and
Treatment; and Service System Issues.
