The Faculty of Learning Disability Psychiatry have recently published a Position Paper for the College of Psychiatrists of Ireland entitled Challenging Behaviour and Intellectual Disability. This position paper is aimed at psychiatrists in Ireland working with people with an intellectual disability, within voluntary organisations, the HSE or MHID teams. While the paper does not aim to address issues such as access to services or service development, it is a practical paper in relation to the assessment and management of challenging behaviour generally.
