Abstract:
A significant number of people with learning disabilities live in nursing and residential homes for older people. Based on research undertaken by the Foundation for People with Learning Disabilities, this article describes why they entered these services and their lives once there. It raises serious concerns about their quality of life and challenges learning disability services to meet better the needs of people with learning disabilities as they age.

People with disabilities who age may have unique experiences and face different challenges than people without disabilities who acquire disabilities as they age. These unique challenges may be especially pertinent for people with severe disabilities who already face disparities in quality of life. Yet, there is little research specifically about the quality of life of older adults with severe disabilities, a population that has continued to grow due to advances in medicine and social supports. This study’s aim was to explore quality-of-life outcomes of older adults with severe disabilities. We

Abstract Disability policies in Sweden rest on the idea that all humans have equal value and a goal of policies has been to enable persons with disabilities to be able to live like other members of society, but older people do not seem to be included as part of this goal.

This paper uses the living standards method to estimate the extra costs for older people with functional disabilities in urban areas in Northern China. The research finds that the cost for older people who live alone is higher than those who live with other family members, and their living standard is lower. The costs increase with the age, especially for the oldest old people who live alone. The cost for older women is higher than their male counterparts. The extra costs of support for people with functional disabilities decrease the overall living standard of the household.

Abstract:
Abstract As people age, they find themselves living similar lives to those around them. This concept is often referred to as linked lives. Linked lives explains that individual lives are often interdependent. This is due to various elements such as social and historical influences. These influences can imprint networks of shared relationships. Researchers have found that the first point of socialization as humans are social relationships with family and friends. However, while the connections of linked lives are often attributed to early life course trajectories, little research has evaluated

Abstract:
Qualitative research methods and participatory action research (PAR) share many intrinsic and complementary qualities. We present two cases, one adopted a broader PAR approach, a health promotion project with men with intellectual disabilities, and the other used participatory methods within a longitudinal qualitative study exploring the benefits of community choir participation. We discuss the nature of the methods adopted and how they helped and hindered both research projects. We conclude that despite some common challenges, qualitative studies can benefit from drawing on PAR principles.
