How can learning disabilities influence a person's care needs?
Just as there are many different learning disabilities, there are many different types of learning disability care. This is because learning disabilities influence a person’s care needs, in a way that is unique and individual to them.
Effective care for learning disabilities is person-centred, with a focus on positive risk-taking which enables and empowers each individual to reach their unique aspirations in life. How their learning disability affects their daily life, and the challenges that they face to achieving their goals, will influence a person’s care needs.
Learning disability care is bespoke, and can range from support with a particular task or activity, to round-the-clock specialist care. Whatever the type or level of support required, care for learning disabilities is tailored and structured to enable the individual to live a full and fulfilling life, on their terms.
