Abstract
The care of residents with multiple intellectual disabilities at the end of life was the subject of a joint investigation carried out by the ethics committee and teams of carers at the Enfant Jésus home in Ciney, Belgium, a residential care establishment that looks after people from the age of 12 with mild-to-severe mental deficiency who may also have associated disabilities. The aim of the investigation was to consider the significance of the care given to residents towards the end of their lives.
