Face widespread barriers in accessing health services,they face unmet health care needs, worse health care outcomes, and higher rates of poverty than people without disabilities. DISABILITY A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE 3) The disadvantage in relation to poorer health in people with disabilities has a greater impact on families,
3 communities and health systems. 4.) Improved health care in people with disabilities is a HUMAN RIGHT and critical to achieving aspirations such as education,employment,caring for and participating in family,community and public life. DISABILITY A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE 5.) Good health care leads to a better overall socioeconomic outcome for people with disabilities and achievement of broader global development. Medical rehabilitation Social rehab Vocational rehab Occupational rehab Speech therapy Physiotherapy TYPES OF REHABILITATION MEDICAL REHABILITATION The process of medical care aiming at developing the functional and psychological abilities of the indivisual, to enable him to attain self dependence and lead an active life.
4 MEDICAL REHABILITATION The current view is to consider medical rehab very early in the process of medical treatment The techniques used are physiotherapy,occupational therapy,and speech therapy. These accelerate the natural regeneration process and reduce or prevent sequelae. MEDICAL REHABILITATION For the disabled with functional or morphological destruction medical rehab must focus on promoting physiological processes essential to development of compensatory mechanisms. Psychiatric rehab starts with the patients first contact with medical services and continues untill he is fully integrated into society. SOCIAL REHABILITATION This is aimed at integration of a disabled person into society by helping him to adjust to the demands of the family,community and occupation while reducing any economic and social burdens that may impede the total rehab process.
5 VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION Provision of vocational services like vocational guidance, vocational training and selective placement designed to enable a disabled person to secure and retain suitable employment. PHYSIOTHERAPY OR physical therapy is the art and science of physical treatment by means of therapeutic exercise like heat,cold, light, water, massage and electricity. The aims of the treatment are relief of pain and increase in circulation,prevention and correction of disability.the maximum return of strength,mobility and co-ordination.

Determines functional abilities, range of joint movement,measurement of vital capacity these act as aids for the physician and to record progress. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY Medically directed treatment of physically and /mentally disabled by means of constructive activities designed and adapted by professionally qualified occupational therapist
6 to help in the restoration of useful function. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY The patient may be referred to an occupational therapist for the following purposes. PSYCHIATRIC PATIENTS To create opportunities for development relationships. of satisfying TO OBTAIN SPECIFIC TREATMENT To restore physical function,to increase joint movement, muscle strength,and co-ordination.

This is based on free and voluntary choice. The primary objective is to give an indivisual opportunity for personal development and satisfaction from work and giving regard to effective use of manpower resources.
8 SELECTIVE PLACEMENT Placing the disabled in an employment suited to their age,experience, qualifications physical and mental capacities. Placement is normally the last stage of rehabilitation and the patient should be referred as early as possible during medical rehabilitation. STATISTICS Statistics involving disabled persons was often impractical because of Lack of proper research facilities High cost Therefore cross sectional studies of the populations in the representative parts of the world AND collection of data from rehab centers and from centers where physical and /or psychiatric disabilities are cared for. STATISTICS In developing countries taking census from the disabled is of no use since no practical action is likely to follow. LEGISLATION In several countries there are no laws governing rehabilitation and therefore both the disabled and population at large are in a state of ignorance regarding
9 their rights and obligations. Therefore proper legislation needs to be introduced in countries where it doesn t exist. As it is expensive the cost must be borne by the government,social security agencies and voluntary groups. LEGISLATION Funds should be provided in. rehab centers, hospitals and other institutions dealing with inpatient and out patients. For services provided at home Prosthetic appliances,transportation and social welfare services. LEGISLATION There should be periodic review of rehabilitated patients to ensure physical,psychological and social benefits are permanant. Pilot rehab centers should be estabilished IN strategic areas. REHABILITATION TEAM The rehab team consists of Physicians and nurses trained in field of rehab medicine.
10 Physiotherapists,occupational therapists,speech therapists,audiologists,social workers, clinical psychologists, vocational counsillors, prosthetists, placement officers, special educators and recreational therapists. REHABILITATION TEAM 3.) Consultants in specialities closely associated with rehab must be available eg orthopaedic 4.) Neurological,and plastic surgeons,internists,psychiatrists,neurologists, orthodontists. WHAT ARE THE PRACTICAL ACTIONS TO ADDRESS BARRIERS TO HEALTH CARE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES Ensure that people with disabilities are actively involved and central to all offorts is to strengthen policies and programmes to overcome barriers to their access to health care.
