These teams provide specialist risk assessment, psychiatric management, and rehabilitation for individuals with intellectual disabilities who have offended or are at risk of offending.Aims: This paper describes the development and initial evaluation of a Forensic Community Intellectual Disability team in Norfolk.Methods: A retrospective case-note review examined sociodemographic, clinical, and forensic characteristics of 58 patients managed in the first year. A clinical consensus method estimated avoided admissions.Results: Patients were predominantly male, White British, mean age 37, with high rates of autism, mental illness, substance misuse, and self-harm risk. Common offences included violence, property, and sexual offences. Interventions resulted in 15 avoided hospital admissions.Conclusions: The team demonstrated that tailored community-based care can effectively manage forensic needs and reduce reliance on inpatient services.","PeriodicalId":46904,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intellectual Disabilities","volume":" ","pages":"17446295261484256"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148892506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Medications were scored based on the risk of constipation indicated in the drug profile. Forty-eight percent of the sample had constipation. Half of the sample were prescribed at least two medications that are commonly associated with side effects of constipation. There were high rates of antipsychotic (30%) and laxative (40%) drug prescription. Five people with a history of constipation died of causes of death associated with constipation.

This study analysed anonymous information from 2691 users of an evidence-based, online, intellectual disability screening questionnaire for children and adolescents (CAIDS-Q) to explore the characteristics of the users and of those being screened. The users were split almost equally between parents/family members (48.6%) and professionals (49.9%), with the majority (63.8%) of the latter group being health staff. Significant differences in the characteristics of the children being screened were found, according to whether the user was a parent/family member or a professional, with the overall pattern suggesting that professionals screened children with greater complexity of needs, but about whom less was known. The screened children had a range of areas of difficulties that are common to those with intellectual disability.

Thematic analysis was used to analyze participant feedback provided eight weeks after course completion. Twenty-four participants were interviewed in January 2021 and May 2021 across two cycles of the course. Three themes emerged: 1) employment and financial challenges; 2) navigating changes and ongoing restrictions; and 3) vaccine anticipation and experience. These findings suggest that despite benefiting from the program, participants continued to experience pandemic-related challenges in 2021, emphasising the need to continually engage people with intellectual disabilities.","PeriodicalId":46904,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intellectual Disabilities","volume":" ","pages":"429-443"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13519065/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139546706","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Joint working between acute and disability services has been identified as a measure to improve healthcare for this group. A mixed method systematic review was undertaken to explore current evidence of joint working between both service providers. Twelve publications were included, and the data were analysed using thematic analysis. Confusion around responsibility and limited training in acute services prevented joint working from occurring. Information-sharing is pivotal in promoting joint-working, but measures which facilitated it were not always used. Albeit acute services demonstrated a strong commitment to deliver quality care to those with intellectual disabilities. Much of the available research captures the experiences of staff in acute services. There is a paucity of research available exploring experiences of disability service providers.","PeriodicalId":46904,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intellectual Disabilities","volume":" ","pages":"509-537"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13519068/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49683505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
