Care for those with learning disabilities or autistic people

People with a learning disability and autistic people will get safer, more personalised care as the government publishes new guidelines for health and care providers to train staff. The Oliver McGowan code of practice on statutory learning disability and autism training aims to ensure staff have the right skills to provide care and boost understanding of the needs of these groups of people. It sets out the standards that providers are expected to meet to be compliant with the law and help make sure patients are kept safe.
