Holistic interventions in complex care

Peter Limbrick Writer, publisher and independent consultant, Interconnections – an organisation for children with disabilities

A multifaceted support system is needed for children with neurological impairments, says Peter Limbrick

Children’s nurses are used to the phrase ‘children with complex needs’. I believe, however, that this says more about how we provide support to the child than it does about the individual. Problematic complexity can be a factor of poor service design and is not inherent in the child at all.
