A classic!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I entered the field of Developmental Disabilities with over 20 years in nursing and a certification in continuing education and staff development. Neither my nursing education nor continuing education included enough content to make me an "expert" in this field. I joined the Developmental Disabilities Nurses Association (DDNA) and signed up our nurses to undergo certification. This book was instrumental in refining our nursing practice. In conjunction with this book, I would recommend Batshaw (Children with Disabilities)for medical information and Beirne-Smith, Ittenbach and Patton (Mental Retardation) for an overview on special education.

Helpful and Informative

With over 20 years in nursing, I was suprised at how much there was to learn when I started working for the ARC (Assosciation for Retarded Citizens). This book helped me learn while also developing resources for the group home staff. I highly recommend it. It's a classic and worth waiting for.
