Making reasonable adjustments to postural care services

This guidance is to help health and social care professionals and family carers and supporters learn more about how to support the postural care needs of people with learning disabilities who are at risk of body distortion.

Under the Equalities Act 2010,1 public sector organisations have to make changes in their approach or provision to ensure that services are accessible to disabled people as well as everybody else. This report is the 16th in a series of reports looking at reasonable adjustments in a specific service area (see Appendix A). The aim of these reports is to share information, ideas and good practice in relation to the provision of reasonable adjustments.
