Decision making


Decision making

The involvement of individuals with CdLS and their care providers in health-care decisions is essential. Intellectual disability and executive functioning impairments in individuals with CdLS can reduce an individual’s ability to make decisions. In these instances, care providers and health-care professionals have to decide what is best and document an individual’s values, preferences and quality of life (193).

Knowledge about CdLS is essential to manage expectations, and health-care providers and social services need to be aware of the needs and problems that may be expected. Family support groups and social media have proved to be extremely helpful for awareness of the needs and problems that individuals with CdLS can face (194,195). Guardianship rules vary among countries, and it is essential for guardianship to be determined and assigned before adulthood.
