A lesson in learning disability from an unexpected source...

This week  Nik's joined by Philippa Harris, who is a learning disability liaison nurse, to discuss the BBC documentary  'Katie Price: Harvey and me". How does Philippa help patients with learning disability that come into hospital either for acute or elective admissions? What could we be doing better in primary care?
We have the usual look at the news headlines, daytime TV and we have some more voice messages that you've sent in.
