[Evaluation of results from the Landstuhl school experiment for the general development of severely handicapped children in schools for the physically handicapped].
The concept of integrated developmental intervention with profoundly disabled children has been evolved and tested in the school trial carried out at the Landstuhl Rehabilitation Centre Westpfalz. In its basic stage the intervention programme encompasses the availability of a good caring relationship between caregiver and child, with reliable satisfaction of needs and gentle child-centered care. This serves as a basis for systematic perceptual development by Basal Stimulation, movement development and initiation of communicative behaviour. The second stage in this developmental approach includes facilitation of continued growth of the children by experiencing concrete doing and meaning contexts. In line with the particular life situation of the parents and their children, parent involvement takes on a special dimension. Developmental intervention with profoundly disabled children presupposes the existence of an appropriate general framework.
