Profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD) are those intellectual disabilities which are combined with common medical complications, profound physical disabilities and sensory impairments. They result in individuals becoming completely dependent on others. Congenital syndromes are common in people with profound intellectual disabilities. These people are unable to live self-sufficiently and require constant monitoring and assistance with their self-care. They normally have weak capability to communicate their needs and also have physical limitations. Multiple disabilities refers to a condition in which an individual is suffering from a variety of disabilities such as someone who has both a motor disability and a sensory disability. This book provides significant information on profound intellectual and multiple disabilities, as well as the theme of inclusion. Those with an interest in this topic would find this book helpful.
