Synopsis Enhancing the Quality of Life of People with Intellectual Disabilities by : Ralph Kober
This book contains a series of articles, written by international experts in the fields of intellectual disability and quality of life, that explore a broad range of issues that impact on the quality of life of people with intellectual disabilities and their families. The book commences with a general discussion on defining quality of life and family quality of life and the appropriateness of using these constructs in the field of intellectual disability, and is followed by an analysis on the effects of living arrangements and employment on quality of life. The book concludes with discussions on the unique issues facing children with intellectual disabilities and people living in developing countries and the effect these issues have upon their quality of life.

Synopsis Living well : community living solutions for Victorians with a disability who have significant health needs by :
The past 15 years has seen a steady increase in the numbers of people with disabilities living in the community. The advent of attendant care programs and other community based support services has meant that many people have moved from institutional settings whilst others have been prevented from becoming institutionalised. State and Federal Governments through this period have supported these moves both at the policy level and through the funding of community based support services. There is however still a significant number of people with disabilities who remain living in institutional settings because of high support needs associated with health issues. At the same time other people with disabilities end up in the acute health system when their needs could be better met in more community based settings. The project sought to address these issues by: investigating the factors that contribute to the inappropriate hospitalisation and institutionalisation of people with high support needs in relation to their health care needs; developing alternative models of care, programs and support services that will enable these people to be supported outside of the acute health system; working with people with disabilities, service providers and policy makers to implement these alternative models.

Synopsis Handbook of Evidence-Based Practices in Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities by : Nirbhay N. Singh
This handbook presents a diverse range of effective treatment approaches for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Its triple focus on key concepts, treatment and training modalities, and evidence-based interventions for challenging behaviors of individuals with IDD provides a solid foundation for effective treatment strategies, theory-to-implementation issues, and the philosophical and moral aspects of care. Expert contributions advocate for changes in treating individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities by emphasizing caregiver support as well as respecting and encouraging client autonomy, self-determination, and choice. With its quality-of-life approach, the handbook details practices that are person-centered and supportive as well as therapeutically sound. Topics featured in the handbook include: Functional and preference assessments for clinical decision making. Treatment modalities from cognitive behavioral therapy and pharmacotherapy to mindfulness, telehealth, and assistive technologies. Self-determination and choice as well as community living skills. Quality-of-life issues for individuals with IDD. Early intensive behavior interventions for autism spectrum disorder. Skills training for parents of children with IDD as well as staff training in positive behavior support. Evidence-based interventions for a wide range of challenging behaviors and issues. The Handbook of Evidence-Based Practices in Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in clinical psychology, social work, behavior therapy, and rehabilitation.

Synopsis Disability and Social Movements by : Rachel Carling-Jenkins
This book provides the reader with a ground-breaking understanding of disability and social movements. By describing how disability is philosophically, historically, and theoretically positioned, Carling-Jenkins is able to then examine disability relationally through an evaluation of the contributions of groups engaged in similar human rights struggles. The book locates disability rights as a new social movement and provides an explanation for why disability has been divided rather than united in Australia. Finally, it investigates whether the recent campaign to implement a national disability insurance scheme represents a re-emergence of the movement. It will be of interest to all scholars and students of both disability studies and social movements.
