| Annotation | This publication contains papers from a series workshops organised as part of the implementation phase of the Mansell Advisory Group on Behavioural Disturbance and Mental Health Services Development for People with Learning Disabilities, set up by the National Health Service (NHS) Executive and the National Development Team. The aim was to produce working materials in key areas which could be used by all commissioners. The following topics are covered: the range of services required to meet the needs of people with learning disabilities and challenging behaviour or mental illness; care management and joint commissioning; features of high quality services and ways in which purchasers can contribute to raising standards and improving quality; the role of purchasers in developing residential care and individualised days services; and guidance on the development of services.
