Out of sight: stopping the neglect and abuse of people with a learning disability

Out of sight: stopping the neglect and abuse of people with a learning disability:
This report by Mencap and the Challenging Behaviour Foundation supports the 'Out of Sight' campaign, which calls for action to prevent people with a learning disability being sent to institutions where they are at risk of abuse and neglect. It suggests measures such as the development of local services by commissioners that specifically meet the needs of children and adults with learning disabilities, the integration of local assessment and treatment units with local services, and frequent, rigorous inspections by the Care Quality Commission.
