Level 2 Working with Individuals with Learning Disability
It is is essential for anyone working with individuals with learning disability to have a good knowledge of legislation and the healthcare system. Around 1.5 million people in the UK have a learning disability. Owing to the fact that they are likely to find it more difficult than others to describe their symptoms, a good understanding of signs and symptoms of various conditions is also essential.
