Dr. Tulp, I presume

Abstract

In this article, we report on that aspect of our ongoing simulation project which focuses on the cultural needs of a ‘virtual’ young man living with profound and multiple intellectual disabilities, who is British Asian and receives care in a residential setting. We describe our involvement with a local agency who support families from black and minority ethnic populations and who have children with a variety of intellectual disabilities. We then go on to detail the focus group we attended and how we incorporated the data generated into a more comprehensive story for our ‘virtual’ young man, Ahmed.
