Jodie Caruana and Tania Vannitamby from the Mental Health and Intellectual Disability Hub at the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network discuss the importance of taking a holistic approach when working with young people with intellectual disability. Our conversation covers the bi-directional relationship between carer wellbeing and a young person’s mental wellbeing, listening to what the needs of the family are and various evidence-based treatment programs for parents and carers.
