Most people with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD) have limited social contact and it is unclear what is done to maintain or increase these contacts. Individual support planning (ISP) can be used in the systematic enhancement of social contacts. This study analyses the content of ISPs with respect to the social contacts of people with PIMD. ISPs for 60 persons with PIMD in the Netherlands were inductively coded and illustrated with quotations. It turned out that every ISP contained information about social contacts. Of all the quotations extracted, 71.2% were about current conditions, 6.2% were about the future and less than 1% concerned actual goals. The social contacts of people with PIMD are mentioned in their ISPs, but this is rarely translated into goals. The results of the current study suggest that attention should be paid to ensuring that professionals understand the importance of social contacts and their application in practice.
大多数重度智力和多重残疾（PIMD）患者的社交接触有限，目前尚不清楚人们采取了哪些措施来维持或增加这些接触。个体支持计划（ISP）可用于系统地增强社交接触。本研究分析了与PIMD患者社交接触相关的个体支持计划的内容。对荷兰60名PIMD患者的个体支持计划进行了归纳编码并用引语进行说明。结果发现，每个个体支持计划都包含有关社交接触的信息。在所有提取的引语中，71.2%是关于当前状况的，6.2%是关于未来的，而涉及实际目标的不到1%。PIMD患者的社交接触在其个体支持计划中有所提及，但这很少转化为目标。当前研究的结果表明，应注意确保专业人员理解社交接触的重要性及其在实践中的应用。
