Title: A program for high school students in a facility for the retarded. Journal: Hosp Community Psychiatry; 1976 Oct; 27(10):721-3. PubMed ID: 976955. Abstract: In 1971 the Fountain Valley (Calif.) High School established a program at Fairview State Hospital in Costa Mesa. California, in which 28 students worked with blind mentally retarded residents. There are now more than 160 students working in the program each semester in nine of the hospital's ten treatment programs; the students are a valuable source of one-to-one assistance. They increase the amount of personal care and attention that each resident receives, and they free staff members for other activities.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
