Description:
Caring for people who have both mental retardation and mental illness
can be quite complex and time consuming. However, recognizing mental
disorders in individuals with mental retardation can make quite a
difference in how they are understood and treated, which greatly
improves their quality of life.
This book brings together a number of clinicians and clinician
researchers, experts in the field with years of experience in
providing mental health care for individuals with mental retardation.
It is designed to help clinicians and health service providers with
limited experience in working with such individuals. It focuses on
assessment, recognition of psychiatric symptoms and various treatment
options available. It discusses the difficulties of doing a
comprehensive assessment and gives guidelines, as well as,
descriptions of some tools that might be used. It looks at DSM-IV
disorders, describes how the symptoms may manifest, gives some
commonly observed behaviors that help identify mental disorders and
provides some clinical examples. Discussion of treatment includes
modalities used with individuals with mental retardation, a
description of how comprehensive care might be provided and a review
of the ethical issues involved in providing this care. |
