Listening to 'voiceless' subjects: gathering feedback to a sensory story from participants with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities / Joanna GRACE in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 23-2 (October 2022)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 23-2 (October 2022) . - p.5-12 Titre : Listening to 'voiceless' subjects: gathering feedback to a sensory story from participants with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Joanna GRACE, Auteur ; Sarah BELL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.5-12 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In this paper, the authors make the point that the views of those with profound and multiple disabilities are often gained by proxy from parents or professionals and rarely from the people themselves. This is largely down to the fact that methods have not been developed to understand the communication of those who do not use conventional and standard forms of communication. In this paper, the authors describe part of a larger project where a sensory story was developed about a kayaking trip to give those who are unable to experience this a feeling of how it might be for them. People who knew the participants well were asked to fill in a Listening Sheet to give data on how the person usually expressed themselves and then the participants were filmed experiencing the story. They argue that this type of work will lead to an expansion of ideas on how to gain the voice of people with Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD) which will greatly enhance research and practice.

The development of a participatory tool to enable autistic people to influence the interior design of their homes / Anna SHEEHAN in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 23-2 (October 2022)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 23-2 (October 2022) . - p.13-26 Titre : The development of a participatory tool to enable autistic people to influence the interior design of their homes Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Anna SHEEHAN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.13-26 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In this paper, the author describes the process of developing a tool, a Mood Board, to get the views of autistic adults on the colours, textures and fabrics they would like to furnish their living space. This is not only to reduce the likelihood of negative responses but to create a space which makes the individual feel happy and joyful. The literature on design for autistic people is reviewed and the author discusses her ideas with architects, designers and a housing provider. The Mood Board is then trialled with eight young autistic people aged 17 to 30 and their responses are reported. Their sensory needs and responses are often paramount in their choices and some colours, textures and finishes can be calming for some and elicit distress in others. It is essential then to design with the individual in mind rather than on what might be considered good for autistic people in general from the literature. The project also demonstrates the importance of asking the individual directly rather than only gaining the views of parents and staff. Methods need to be developed for getting the perspective of those who communicate in ways other than speech. The Editor welcomes other papers which show how homes and spaces have been designed in consultation with the individuals who are going to live there.

From the side lines but in the trenches: the views of a parent group on Autism Care Pathways / William FARR in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 23-2 (October 2022)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 23-2 (October 2022) . - p.27-31 Titre : From the side lines but in the trenches: the views of a parent group on Autism Care Pathways Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : William FARR, Auteur ; Anna WALKER, Auteur ; Nicola KING, Auteur ; Seema ISLAM, Auteur ; Zamir AKHTAR, Auteur ; Sophie MCGREVEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.27-31 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The authors describe this paper as an opinion piece in that it presents the views of five parents who were part of a parent group which convened monthly between November 2019 and July 2022 to discuss their experiences of Autism Care Pathways. This was part of a larger project on Autism Care Pathways funded by NHS England called A Realist Evaluation of Autism Service Delivery (RE-ASceD). The parents discussed their views on how current pathways need to be enhanced. The diversity of the autism population is acknowledged and professionals and services need to reflect this. Areas for improvement are suggested which include better coordination between health, social care and education, greater knowledge of autism among front line professionals, improved communication with families in terms of support offered after diagnosis, and less dependence on voluntary groups and charities for this support. The use of online methods to obtain and give information developed during the pandemic is suggested as a cost-effective means of communication during the diagnostic process and beyond. The point is made though, that access for families who lack resources or from other cultures needs attention to ensure their children have an equitable service.

Autism and ageing: implications for services / Mandeep RANGER in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 23-2 (October 2022)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 23-2 (October 2022) . - p.32-39 Titre : Autism and ageing: implications for services Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mandeep RANGER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.32-39 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In this paper, the author, who works as a clinical psychologist, considers the effects of ageing on autistic adults and how their specific needs might be addressed. The physical and mental health of all people generally deteriorate with age and there are factors which exacerbate certain conditions. Having regular physical exercise, good nutrition, gainful employment and meaningful social contacts, and seeking advice when symptoms appear, are all protective factors for some disorders and diseases. Some autistic adults do not have the same means or opportunities that are enjoyed by the general population which puts them at increased risk. It is important then that services are aware of the issues faced and take steps to address these so that their physical and mental health is as good as it can be in older age. The Editor welcomes papers from others on this topic.

Dance for pupils with profound and multiple learning disabilities: the views of professionals / Nicole SHAW in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 23-2 (October 2022)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 23-2 (October 2022) . - p.40-51 Titre : Dance for pupils with profound and multiple learning disabilities: the views of professionals Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Nicole SHAW, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.40-51 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The author works in a day, special school for pupils aged 2 to 11 with a range of disabilities, including autism and Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD). She is the Physical Education Coordinator and enjoys dance, having previously worked as a dance teacher and trainer. In this small-scale study, staff within the school were asked to give their views on dance, in terms of its value for the children, their confidence in delivering dance sessions and what they feel would support them to enhance this. Overall, the staff were positive about dance but differed in their confidence levels. The author concludes that dance should be seen as a distinct activity within the timetable and that staff would appreciate professional development from a dance specialist to increase their confidence and the benefits to learners with PMLD.

Staff views on the value of singing for pupils with severe and profound learning disabilities / Kat SKEAVINGTON in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 23-2 (October 2022)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 23-2 (October 2022) . - p.52-62 Titre : Staff views on the value of singing for pupils with severe and profound learning disabilities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kat SKEAVINGTON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.52-62 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The author is a teacher who has always loved music and singing. An online questionnaire was created for staff working within UK special schools to give their views on the value of singing for students with Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) and Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD). There is relatively little guidance or research on how singing might be used with these learners and what the potential benefits and barriers might be. Meeting the different needs of individuals in group sessions can be a challenge, yet some point to the sense of community that can develop. More case studies are needed to show how staff conduct singing for learners with SLD and PMLD and ways developed to ascertain their response to these.
