In: Mental handicap research, Band 2, Heft 2, S. 137-151

Abstract

ABSTRACTA training course was provided to disseminate good practice in the provision of staffed housing for people with mental handicaps in South East Thames Regional Health Authority. A follow‐up questionnaire of people who attended two years after the course showed that respondents rated the course as a major contributor to their practice. A survey of four London health regions showed much greater development of staffed housing in South East Thames Regional Health Authority, including development in districts which were not committed to this model before the course, than in the other three regions.
