Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Disability and Communication written by Michael S. Jeffress and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-29 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Palgrave Handbook of Disability and Communication covers a broad spectrum of topics related to how we perceive and understand disability and the language, constructs, constraints and communication behavior that shape disability discourse within society. The essays and original research presented in this volume address important matters of disability identity and intersectionality, broader cultural narratives and representation, institutional constructs and constraints, and points related to disability justice, advocacy, and public policy. In doing so, this book brings together a diverse group of over 40 international scholars to address timely problems and to promote disability justice by interrogating the way people communicate not only to people with disabilities, but also how we communicate about disability, and how people express themselves through their disabled identity.
Download or read book Everyday Social Interaction written by Vivienne C. Riches and published by Brookes Publishing Company. This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social skills are necessary for everyday living. They enable us to express our needs and wants, agreement or disagreement, and to ask for help when we need it. Individuals with a disability often do not learn these skills adequately - and so become isolated from the world and the people around them. Everyday Social Interaction provides vital information on how to teach these interactive skills. Component skills and routines are clearly identified and helpful training strategies are suggested. The second edition of this highly successful book (previously titled Communicating Everyday) has been extensively revised, expanded and updated. A new chapter covering the important area of making and keeping friends is included, as are various checklists and task analyses which show how complex skills can be broken down into major components for easy monitoring of performance.
Download or read book Effective Communication with People with Learning Disabilities written by Rorie Fulton and published by Pavilion Publishing and Media Limited. This book was released on 2012 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of us depend on effective communication in order to be able to live our lives to the full. For people with learning disabilities, effective communication is especially important because they often rely on the support of others to live their lives. It is therefore essential that family members, carers, support workers and health and social care practitioners are able to communicate effectively with the individuals whom they support. That way, people with learning disabilities have the best possible chance of securing the rights, inclusion, choice and independence to which they, like anyone else, are entitled. This pack provides a wide-ranging training programme to cover the concepts and techniques which underpin and make possible effective communication with people with learning disabilities. The training programme comprises four sessions that can be delivered together as a day's training or, alternatively, as stand-alone sessions delivered over a series of team meetings or in-house training days. The pack sets out a Total Communication approach and training participants are introduced to an extensive selection of communication techniques that can be used in addition to the spoken word and adapted according to the communication skills of the individual in question. In this way, as well as having the opportunity to develop their communication skills, training participants are given a 'taster' of a range of communication concepts and techniques that can be used to facilitate effective communication with people with learning disabilities. Interactive activities and exercises allow participants to explore the various communication techniques and to discuss and reflect upon ways of incorporating them into their work. The pack provides a broad range of perspectives on communicating with people with learning disabilities and enables training participants to develop a deeper understanding of the communication challenges faced by individuals and the skills and techniques which can be used to overcome them.
Download or read book An Introduction to Communicating Effectively with People with Learning Disabilities written by Kate Richardson and published by Pavilion Publishing and Media Limited. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People with learning disabilities often depend on others for the support they need in order to live their lives. For this reason, effective communication is essential if people with learning disabilities are to secure rights, inclusion, choice and independence. The degree to which individuals depend on the support of others varies from one person to the next - support may be for just a couple of hours a week to do the shopping and make sure the bills get paid, or, for an individual with high support needs, it may be round-the-clock help from a small team of personal assistants. For all individuals, however, the effectiveness of the support provided depends on the quality of the relationship between the individual and those who support them. The quality of this relationship depends, in turn, on the quality of the communication between them. This Care Quality Guide is based on the training pack Effective Communication with People with Learning Disabilities, and explains the fundamental basics of good communication to inspire care workers to think about the way they communicate with the people in their care. Communicating Effectively with Individuals with Learning Disabilities: A Care Quality Guide for health and social care staff and carers distils the information in the main training pack and includes new and unique content to allow for individual study. It explores the EPIC model of communication, devised by the authors, and how the four elements of this model need to be in place for good communication to take place: E - The communication Environment P - The communication Partner I - The Individual's communication skills C - The communication Culture In this model, the communication partner is the essential element of the jigsaw that needs to be in place for all the others to connect. It also covers how to avoid communication breaking down, and practical guidance for techniques to repair if and when it does, and provides descriptions of a wide range of communication techniques and aids to further enhance work with people with learning disabilities, such as gesture and eye gaze, pictures and photographs, visual timetables and hi-tech communication aids using iPads, for example, or other technological supports.
