Full description:
People with severe learning disabilities often face poorer health and complex surgical care involving multiple teams and repeated anaesthesia, increasing risks and stress. We want to study surgical care experiences. We would like to speak to people with learning disabilities/autism and their families for advice on designing this study to make sure it meets their needs and helps them to be involved.
