title: Learning disabilities: community nutrition.
abstract: Nutrition for people with learning disabilities living in the community is an aspect of care that should not be taken for granted. From clients who live virtually independently to those living in fully staffed homes, there is much to be gained from a thorough assessment of their eating patterns. This article reviews the most common nutritional problems such clients face and discusses ways of overcoming them.
