This book offers unique and flexible guidelines that can be used by
practitioners to ease the process of breaking bad news to people
with intellectual disabilities. The guidelines, which are adaptable
to individual communication ability and level of understanding,
address the many complex needs of people with intellectual
disabilities who can find understanding and accepting news that has
a negative impact on their life a very difficult task. In the book,
Irene Tuffrey-Wijne covers a range of different types of bad news,
from bereavement and illness to more minor issues such as a change
of accommodation, and offers highly practical and effective tips
that will help carers and practitioners ensure that bad news is
relayed as sensitively and successfully as possible. An easy-to-use
and comprehensive guide, this book will be an invaluable resource
of information for carers, health professionals such as doctors and
nurses as well as families of people with intellectual
disabilities.
