    Author: McDermott A.
    Journal: Nurs Stand; ; 7(30):32-5. PubMed ID: 8499285.
    Abstract:
    People with learning disabilities who present challenging behaviours pose significant problems for staff who are keen to encourage in them a sense of community integration. This article relates the efforts of one group of staff in a community home who devised a programme that helped to transform the behaviours of four clients, enabling them to become actively involved in community activities.
