This book offers an approach to planning respite care provision for disabled children and children with learning difficulties, based on the child's abilities and needs. The model set out in this book, the "Hello, this is me model" provides a method of assessing and planning care for children with a variety of special needs. Throughout the book an emphasis is placed on partnership between families and carers that enables children and their parents to make their wishes known when planning respite care so that the unique needs of each child can be met.
