摘要：

An anonymous postal question-naire survey was carried out to evaluate the quality of respite care services, for children with mental handicap, offered by a health authority unit in Solihull, West Midlands. Secondary aims of the study were to build up a demographic and clinical profile of the children using this facility and also to identify the char- acteristics of regular users of the service. Children receiving respite care were more likely to be male, mobile, suffering from speech difficulties and displaying behaviour problems while epilepsy emerged as an additional distinguishing feature for frequent users. © 1992 The British Journal of Mental Subnormality.
