Title | Relationships and power: an exploration of the systemic factors that impact upon the lives of adults with intellectual disabilities in residential services |
Authors | Jackman-Galvin, V. |
Abstract | This research aims to explore the experiences of adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) who live in residential services, and staff, of the social processes that impact upon person-centeredness, and discover what their subjective experiences can tell us about the relational and cultural dynamics that exist in disability services in the Republic of Ireland, and their impact upon the quality of life of adults with ID who live in residential services. The study was undertaken to address the lack of research currently available on understanding the social processes that exist in disability services, from the perspective of adults with ID and staff, to explore the importance of taking a relational perspective into account in policy development and service practices, and to consider the influence of psychologists working relationally in disability services to promote person centred cultures that safeguard against abuse. |
