Help anyone?


Working in Saudi Arabia in a facility housing physico-mental developmentally disabled people. What are the job discription of a developmental disability nurse? And what are the needed knowledge and skills to work in a facility with this kinds of patients? Any site or pages that can help nurses like me?

Try the Developmental Disabilities Nurses Association at www.ddna.org . Wonderful website and I have been able to get a wealth of information from this resource.

There is a lot with people with developmental disabilities that deals with mental health. You also need some patience. Also, many will have other associated physical disabilities. Really, any thing can come your way but definately shapen your skills on mental health
