The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training is the governments preferred training package. Oliver McGowan was a young man diagnosed with mild autism and learning disability who died due to swelling on the brain after being given antipsychotic medication, despite previous adverse reactions and his expressed wishes not to have the medication.
