The Art of Caring for People with Intellectual Disabilities considers how the optimal level of caring elevates a series of skills and techniques into something that feels, to an outsider, like an art form and provides a lasting, positive improvement to the life of the person they care for. Focusing on the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) concept of living in congruence with our own core values, the authorsseek to help carers analyse their own core values in relation to their role, and then to identify strategies that will help them live in line with these values. The book explores the multifaceted nature of the caring role- from carer to nurse to companion and beyond - and how to overcome the range of challenges involved in caring for people with intellectual disabilities using the concept of ACT to enhance the wellbeing of both carers themselves, and those they care for.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11826991\"\u003eJonathan Williams\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11750520\"\u003eRobert Jones\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pavilion Publishing and Media Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.12w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781803882628\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 180388262X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FAM\"\u003eFamily \u0026amp; Relationships\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FAM028000\"\u003eLearning Disabilities\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pavilion Publishing and Media Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44690528764141,"sku":"9781803882628","price":56.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_d945d26a-3919-4223-8ca9-49d5138b7c9b.jpg?v=1703708713","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-art-of-caring-for-people-with-intellectual-disabilities-enhancing-quality-of-life-through-attitudes-education-and-behaviour-9781803882628","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
