Abstract
The achievements of a training course in social skills for physically disabled young people reaching school-leaving age were evaluated. The course enabled the students to acquire skills in personal care and mobility, but not all the gains were sustained on return home. That basic skills can be acquired as a result of such a short intervention shows that more attention should be paid to them in school.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
