Lennox, Tamsin N.; Nadkarni, Joanne; Moffat, Peter; Robertson, Caroline
Journal of Learning Disabilities (United Kingdom), v7 n1 p34-50 Mar 2003
A survey in one English community of 49 adults with intellectual disabilities found basic health needs (such as feet problems, incontinence, eyesight problems, and specific medical conditions) were often not being met. Access to primary care services to address these needs is discussed along with suggestions for future research and recommendations for service planning. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
