title: A cookery book for self-catering mentally handicapped.
abstract: The more able patients from hospitals for the mentally handicapped in Southmead Health District Bristol, are being established in minimal-support homes. Dietitians were asked to advise on how to teach practical cookery skills and encourage good nutrition. They were unable to recommend any of the available cookery books, and have designed a recipe folder in picture form of suitable meals for one week. The mentally handicapped patient's background is discussed as it relates to the practical problems of rehabilitation.
