Adulthood in profound autism
The adulthood that stays invisible. 31 chapters from housing to ageing and grief.
Very little has been written about adulthood in profound autism, which makes this the broadest guide in the series. It covers housing, day activities, self-determination and physical causes, but also subjects the other guides do not touch at all: restrictive practices and the law, vulnerability to abuse, ageing parents, and death and unspoken grief.
What you get
- Housing, supported living and daily life in a care home
- Day activities, participation and a meaningful life
- Self-determination, adulthood and safety
- Recognising physical causes, load and sensory load
- Sexuality, the body and privacy
- Ageing parents and securing the future
- Staff wellbeing and compassion fatigue
- Restrictive practices and the law, safety skills and vulnerability to abuse
- Death, loss and grief that has no words
Who it is for
For families and professionals walking alongside a profoundly autistic adult.
