Models of health service delivery for people with intellectual disability

The Social Policy Research Centre at the University of NSW has recently published Current models of health service delivery for people with intellectual disability: Literature review, by Gianfranco Giuntoli, B. J. Newton and Karen R. Fisher. 

The review focused on publications from January 2011 to January 2015 and identified nine models of health service delivery for people with intellectual disability, seven from the UK and two from Australia. All the models identified stressed the need for interagency collaboration as a way of delivering services based on co-operation and integration between generic and specialist teams.
