| Abstrakt: |
People with autism are especially vulnerable to mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. They need their environments to be predictable, which may involve isolating themselves as far as possible from other people and from anything that is changeable. Healthcare organisations have a statutory duty to carry out reasonable adjustments to make provision suitable for people with autism, but should be aware that clients may not access services because they cannot understand them or fear the consequences of doing so. In addition, because few people with ASCs can communicate their feelings, it may be difficult to diagnose comorbid depressive or anxiety states, or learning disabilities. To resolve these problems, practitioners need training in ASCs and clients should be involved in planning their own care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
