Abstract | Background: People with intellectual disability and chronic and complex support needs often require unique models of care that are intensive and expensive. How these supports can be continued within a rapidly changing policy and funding context in Australia, has not been fully determined. Method: This descriptive study utilised a retrospective electronic case-file audit design. Demographic details, chronic health conditions, medications, behaviours of concern, and overall support needs profile were mapped for 41 participants. Results: The profile is one of an ageing cohort, with high levels of chronicity and polypharmacy that requires a specialised workforce to fully meet their support needs. Conclusion: As the people with ID in this cohort age, the training needs of the current and future workforce will need to adapt as different issues become more prominent. How the national disability health and policy settings can best accommodate these support needs remains unclear. (As Provided). |
