Abstract:

The challenge facing services for people with learning disabilities is to create the environment in which clients have the best quality of life without preconception. The heterogenous nature of people with learning disabilities requires diversity of care provisions sensitive to their individual needs. The different demonstration and presentation of their mental health needs has influenced the development of services and different models of specialist services have emerged with local variations. There is still, however, a great deal of confusion on both ideological and service delivery level. A

Existing research has primarily explored reduced political involvement among individuals with disabilities, particularly in electoral politics. However, little research has attended the involvement of deaf people specifically. This is of interest because deaf youth are at an intersection of disability, language and cultural identity with their language affiliations and rejection or acceptance of disability evolving through childhood.

Until 2012 people with a disability were excluded from Australian' resettlement programs representing a significant discrimination concern. As a result of strong opposition to this issue, the policy changed in 2012 and the number of refugees with disabilities increased. This in turn led to more ethnic

Disabilities in persons affected by leprosy pose a life-long disease burden, both for patient and the responsible medical service. The obligate intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium leprae affects skin, as well as peripheral nerve cells, and can result in leprosy reactions, which can be intensifications of the host’s immune response, or antibody reactions to immune complexes. Leprosy can thus lead to disabilities, that are currently graded in three categories.

Abstract:

This study illuminates how adults with intellectual disabilities understand and describe their everyday life and its shortcomings when it comes to equal rights in the context of Norwegian community living. An inclusive research design, including nine persons with mild intellectual disability, two university researchers and two intellectual disability nurses from the municipality, was undertaken. An inductive thematic analysis of data identified three key themes: everyday life – context, rhythm and structure, social participation and staff – an ambiguous part of everyday life. Results show that

Abstract:

Social support of older people is given a very great attention. In many countries, older people receive long-term care at home. The long-term care (LTC) is actively developed worldwide over the past 20 years. LTC improves the life quality of older people and people with disabilities. Such system includes medical and social services. Currently, in many OECD countries, from a half to three quarters of older people receive long-term care at home. France is one of those countries in which the social support of older people is given a very great attention. In Russia, long-term care is a task of fam

Abstract:

Falls are common in late life. Evidence from New Zealand, the United States and Great Britain suggest that about a third of people aged over 65 will fall each year, a proportion that rises to about half for the community-dwelling population older than 85 years. Falls are the leading cause of death from injury in older people. Although many falls do not cause serious injury, nor precipitate referral to the health services for 30–50% of fallers, those that do have major consequences. From a purely financial perspective, acute care of those with falls is estimated to cost $10 billion per annum in

Abstract:

In common with most modern industrial societies, Great Britain is facing the unique late 20th century phenomenon of rapidly increasing numbers of people, especially very elderly people, requiring health and social care. The response in Britain has been to search for ways to enlarge the caring capacity of the “community” and, thereby, reduce the demands on public health and social services. Similar policy responses have been developed in other capitalist societies such as Canada, France, and the United States. Although a policy of “community care”-the provision of state services in people's own

The study clarified the stages of evolution of the concept of «inclusive tourism» and its interpretation by both Ukrainian and foreign scientists, as well as its own definition of this area. The main difference was due to the variety of terms that can be used to describe tourism for people with disabilities. For Ukraine, the most appropriate option is the word «barrier-free», which, unlike «affordable tourism», has no other interpretation. A

Abstract:

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is considered to be the second greatest reform in healthcare in Australia after the introduction of Medicare in Australia in 1983. This reform was introduced in 2012 in two phases. The first phase as a trial took place for three years. The expectation was that the reform will be rolled out by 2019 or 2020. This article argues that the trial implementation process has achieved very positive outcomes in the lives of a great number of people with disability in Australia. At the same time, NDIS is facing many serious challenges in some areas. One of
