The lack of practical information available to&#160;the families of vulnerable individuals - and sometimes a similar lack of resources for the professionals who deal with them - can&#160;lead to&#160;frustration and in some cases tragedy. In this practical guide for anyone involved in&#160;caring for patients with challenging behaviour, Gr&#225;inne Smith (author of the bestselling <i>Anorexia and Bulimia in the Family)</i> champions&#160;the importance of teamwork so that carers, both formal and informal, can learn to&#160;collaborate in treatment approaches with professionals. Drawing on&#160;anonymous case studies&#160;as well as recent research and&#160;experience, this unique book provides an array of practical tools and templates to aid the development of consistent, effective all-round care for vulnerable individuals.
