This month we would like to thank the Eastern Paralyzed Veterans Association for allowing us to link to their very complete manual titled, Fire Prevention for Persons With Disabilities. Although their original focus was for persons with physical disabilities, it is so full of excellent, well- researched information that it applies to everyone. Many persons with developmental disabilities also experience mobility problems and will find this information valuable. For additional fire safety considerations for persons with cognitive disabilities, check out this months article in the Clinical Professionals section.
