“…They describe feeling disempowered, unsafe and being cared for by staff who did not understand ID. These experiences are congruent with those described by people with mental illness (MI) without additional disabilities (Rogers and Pilgrim, 1993;Goodwin et al, 1999;Quirk and Lelliott, 2001;Kumar et al, 2001;Wood and Pistrang, 2004). O'Brien and Rose (2010) found that individuals with IDs were more concerned with how services were delivered rather than who delivered them and being listened to given choice and control were of importance.…”

“…This is an experienced also identified by individuals with MI (Rogers and Pilgrim, 1993;Goodwin et al, 1999;Quirk and Lelliott, 2001;Kumar et al, 2001;Wood and Pistrang, 2004). Donner et al (2010), however, reported individuals with ID were further disempowered, perhaps because of the occurrence of acquiescence, which is widely reported to occur in those with ID but not in those with MI.…”

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether acute inpatient psychiatric staffs' attitudes and self-efficacy towards adults with mild intellectual disability, were different than towards the general mental health population. And whether their understanding of the policy for those with mental illness and intellectual disability differed. Design/methodology/approach -The study is a between-subject design, using a self-administered postal questionnaire. The sample was all qualified staff from the acute inpatient psychiatric provision of an inner London borough. Potential participants were randomly assigned to two research groups, half being given a questionnaire regarding people with intellectual disability and the other half an identical one regarding people with mental illness. Comparisons were made between the two. Findings -The majority of staff were unaware of the current policy direction for adults with intellectual disability although were on the whole in agreement to the idea that they should access mainstream services. Staff overall did not have more negative attitudes to those with intellectual disability although were less likely to empower or encourage self-advocacy. Staff were significantly less confident that they had sufficient training and experience, and in their perceived ability to be able to communicate, assess and treat adults with mild intellectual disability when compared to those with mental illness. Research limitations/implications -The response rate and small sample size is a limitation. Further research could usefully look at whether self-efficacy and attitudes differ in different models of mainstream psychiatric care. Originality/value -Government policy in the UK regarding services for people with intellectual disability advocates for inclusion and equality (Chaplin and Taggart, 2012). Those requiring psychiatric care should access this from mainstream services (.) There are, however, no UK-based studies investigating the views of mainstream acute inpatient psychiatric staff towards their role. Intellectual disability staff have concerns about their attitudes and self-efficacy and it is know that acute care is the setting where most adults with intellectual disability will come across mainstream psychiatric staff. Findings have relevance to managers and staff in both intellectual disability and psychiatric services and could be considered in the context of trying to work together as is the direction of policy.

“…Indeed, compared to work around the overall experience of primary healthcare, there are in general few studies involving patients with mental health and emotional concerns, especially studies which include people with both serious and more common but less severe psychological problems. Most information about views of patients with mental health problems involves inpatients in psychiatric institutions, with views of patients with mental health problems less frequently sought in other settings (Barker, Shergill, Higginson, & Orrell, 1996;Rogers & Pilgrim, 1993).…”

People with psychological problems face important challenges in obtaining high quality healthcare. We review evidence on the experience of primary care by people with mental health problems, including reasons why their care may be reported as worse than other groups. In the 2009 English GP Patient Survey, 5.7% of 2,163,456 respondents reported that they had a long-standing psychological or emotional condition. In an unadjusted regression model, respondents with long-standing emotional or psychological conditions rated their experiences worse than people without such problems, with scores which were up to 3 percentage points lower on individual survey items. However, after controlling for age, gender, ethnicity, deprivation and self-reported general health, people with long-standing psychological or emotional problems had slightly higher scores on 16 out of the 18 survey items, though with the equivalent of less than 2 percentage points difference for most items. Part of the reason for the difference between the adjusted and unadjusted models was the high prevalence of self-reported 'fair' or 'poor' general health among people who reported psychological problems. Overall, the results suggest that people with long-standing psychological and emotional conditions have similar experiences of English primary care compared to the rest of the population.
