Abstract:

From September 2018–June 2019, I was fortunate enough to undertake a research internship with the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). My chosen topic was ‘people with learning disabilities accessing maternity services'. This was because, through 19 years of clinical practice, I identified an increasing number of women and families with learning disabilities presenting for care in my Trust, but found no specific mention of learning disabilities in the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) (2019) guidelines, nor a standard definition within which to work. This led m

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.

Abstract:

Services for people with learning disabilities have been transformed since the late 1960s by the move from institutional to community care. (Learning disabilities is the term currently used in the UK in preference to mental retardation, developmental disabilities and mental handicap.) Important changes include the progress towards integration, participation, inclusion and choice for people with learning disabilities, which have occurred in the context of the broader civil and human rights movements. It is time to examine the services delivered to people with learning disabilities and comorbid

Abstract:

People with disabilities display less use of preventive health services, such as health examinations, flu vaccinations, Pap smears and breast screening, but evidence has shown that preventive health services can detect or even prevent serious diseases and medical problems. Therefore, identifying the factors associated with the use of preventive health services is important for people with disabilities. This study examined the use of preventive health services by people with disabilities and identified other associated factors for people with disabilities. The research used social demographics

Abstract:

Comprehensive health care services respond effectively to the needs of their patients not just in terms of treatment of health problems but also by addressing overall well-being by understanding, informing, involving, counselling and respecting the individual. By contrast, the history of health care for people with learning disabilities has been characterised by a lack of communication and poor understanding of their ordinary and special needs. There have been many barriers to access to health services that most members of the population take for granted. In addition, people with learning disa

Patients seek attention and treatments to various types of diseases and symptoms. Diseases infection and symptoms are often not predictive. Normally, there is a spread and movement of people across the geographical locations, of both the rural and urban communities, in countries including Namibia. As such, healthcare could be needed at any location, and at any time. There is significant mobility of individuals and groups within a country. Unfortunately, the healthcare services are not always as mobile at the level and speed that individuals and groups does in Namibia. Hence, there is need for

Medicaid, the federal-state financed program that assists people to gain access to health services when they cannot afford them, has been inthe news of late. Unfortunately the news is disquieting for people who count on this program for health care and rehabilitation services. Change is not always the friend of vulnerable people, and in this instance, it can be downright disruptive when it comes to accessing services. Because they are not well organized, people with Medicaid coverage do not have political clout, even though more people are covered by Medicaid than Medicare (e.g., the public in

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
