Abstract (sommario):

Problems of disable people were a very important social issue in the Second Republic of Poland. Social policy towards them was not unitary. It dealt with issues of war invalids (veterans and civilians), casualties of work accidents (who were insured) and poor disabled people (uninsured). A legal basis for these activities of the state and local governments was different and the support for the particular groups of disabled people was also various. The war invalids received more support than others. The help involved e.g. pensions, health care, prostheses and a chance to get a job. The casualties of work accidents received pensions and health care but their benefits were fewer than benefits for war invalids. Poor disabled people were in the worst position. The state, local governments, charity organisations tried to help them but their possibilities were too small in relation to the needs. Poor disabled people received neither benefits nor health care, they could not expect the help in retraining and finding a job and only few of them could count on a place in care facility (the number of these places was too small).

Abstract (sommario):

One of the challenges in response to population aging is to meet needs for elderly care among older people especially for those who want to age in their homes or communities. However, disabled older people have more challenges due to their restricted mobility to access care resources than non-disabled ones. We propose a new framework based on the changing relationship between older people and their environment, in which resource linkage in elderly care utilization is emphasized. We conducted a survey with 139 participants (i.e., older people age 60 years or over with different level of disabilities) in three types of neighborhoods in Beijing, China. By conducting a decision tree analysis under the Person-Environment Link (P-E Link) model, we (1) characterized unmet needs for elderly care (activities of daily living (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) assistance) among community-dwelling disabled older people; (2) found disabled older people had more unmet needs for both ADL and IADL assistance because of a lack in linkages to care resources than non-disabled ones; and (3) characterized the linkages to care resources for better supporting disabled older people to age in place, including family support, social connection, and spatial environment. Our findings help improve the Anderson behavioral model by characterizing enabling environments, which highlights that not only the availability of enabling resources but also linkages to these enabling resources play an important role in meeting needs for care among disabled older people. Our findings can also inform improvements in policy design that are targeted to reduce elderly care inequalities.

Abstract (sommario):

With significant demographic changes already apparent amongst the older population, care of elderly people in the community is becoming ever more important. It is predicted that the number of elderly people aged 65 years and over will rise from 8.4 million in 1985 to 9 million by the year 2001. The most significant growth will be found amongst those aged 85 years and over, with a projected rise from 8-13% of the population by the millennium.

Abstract (sommario):

<p align="justify">Our findings evidenced that the poverty level of disabled people is remain to be high despite the government policy regarding poverty and disability. Usually, not only disabled people but households with disabled individuals have high level of poverty. If one of the households members is disabled, the probability for household to be in the group with the income below poverty line increases dramatically. It is because majority of disabled people (in employable and childhood age groups) are members of households with three and more members. Households with one or two members have lower level of poverty than households with three and more members, particularly, in comparison with households with disabled persons. The probability to be in the group with income below poverty line is 30% for disabled people in employable age from households with three and more members. Often, households with four members have children that increase the probability to be in the group with income below poverty line. The data derived from surveys is shown that the main disadvantage of Russian government policy related to social care for disabled people is almost fully neglecting specific needs of different disabled groups. Existed payments are oriented to individual recipients of social support rather than whole households. </font>

Abstract (sommario):

We examined the influencing factors of the undermet care needs of the Chinese disabled oldest old people when their children are both caregivers and are themselves older people. Data were obtained from a cross-sectional survey: the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) in 2018. The study participants included 1617 disabled oldest old people whose primary caregiver were their children or children-in-law and were aged 60 years and over. The results showed that the prevalence of undermet needs remained high, with 49.6% disabled oldest old people reporting undermet care needs. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that living in a rural area (OR = 1.309, 95% CI = 1.133–1.513) and a higher frailty index (OR = 1.103, 95% CI = 1.075–1.131) were significantly positively associated with higher odds for undermet care needs, while a higher annual household income (OR = 0.856, 95% CI = 0.795–0.923), more financial support from children (OR = 0.969, 95% CI = 0.941–0.997), higher care expenditures (OR = 1.044, 95% CI = 1.002–1.088), better caregiver’s performance (OR = 0.282, 95% CI = 0.196–0.407) and sufficient income to pay for daily expenses (OR = 0.710, 95% CI = 0.519–0.973) were significantly inversely associated with higher odds for undermet care needs. This evidence suggests the importance of policies to establish a community-based socialized long-term care system and supporting family caregivers of the disabled oldest old people.

Abstract (sommario):

Accessing hospital care and being a patient is a highly individualised process, but it is also dependent on the culture and practices of the hospital and the staff who run it. Each hospital usually has a standard way of ‘doing things’, and a lack of flexibility in this may mean that there are challenges in effectively responding to the needs of disabled people who require ‘reasonably adjusted’ care. Based on qualitative stories told by disabled people accessing hospital services in England, this article describes how hospital practices have the potential to shape a person’s health care experiences. This article uses insights from social practice theories to argue that in order to address the potential problems of ‘misfitting’ that disabled people can experience, we first need to understand and challenge the embedded hospital practices that can continue to disadvantage disabled people.

Abstract (sommario):

The 15-20% of the world's population has certain disability. They have treated bad, looked low, ignored beyond their law, educations and medical care has been denied, also have been underestimated. This is 21st century, people are being kind and helpful in many places, the disabled are achieving in all fields but still some with not the open mind are struggling to accept disabled people even their parents in some cases. Government and science had helped them in uncountable things and also been a devil in number of things. Government introduced laws and policies favouring disabled people. Science and technology helped them to do things which they can’t. Separate medical care services and welfare organisations are there to help for disabled people in several ways including education and insurance. In India, human rights commission is there to give a shout to disabled people rights and also to debate about their dignity. But is this good enough for their life. Technology can do more than this to make their life even better and better. Government can implement strict laws and bills against people who are discriminating and harassment on disabled.

Abstract (sommario):

Disabled people suffer from pervasive inequalities in employment, education, transportation, housing, and health care compared to those who are not disabled. Moreover, people with disabilities are often subject to unjustified stigma and pity. In this paper, I will explain why these disadvantages violate relational egalitarian principles of justice. As I will show, my argument can account for both kinds of inequality that disabled people face.

Abstract (sommario):

Purpose In the UK, the Children and Families Act aims to create one assessment process for children with special educational needs or disability, through Education, Health and Care Plans. It also aims for greater participation from children and young people in decisions about their own lives. Current evidence suggests that children’s needs and desires across education, health and social care are not being fully met, partly because adult agendas drive policy, practice and standards of care. Furthermore, little attention is paid to the way in which disabled children and young people are included either within decisions about their own support or within research processes. The purpose of this paper is to present a research process designed to address these issues. Design/methodology/approach Six disabled young people co-led this participatory research project; for the first time, disabled young people had the opportunity to define a research agenda which spoke to what “quality” might look like in planning for their own future and that of other disabled children and young people. Findings This paper presents findings from this process, addressing important ethical issues relevant for policy, practice and research, identified through this rights based, collaborative way of working in partnership. Three key issues were identified and are explored here. They include first, tensions between young people becoming leaders and dominant ideas about safeguarding and child protection; second, being empowered through engagement within the project yet restricted in other areas of personal life and, finally, the emotional impact on new researchers of gathering evidence of a continuing lack of autonomy for disabled children and young people. We argue that challenging dominant notions concerning the participation and protection of disabled children is required in order to ensure that they access their right to be decision-makers in their own lives, and to being empowered within research processes. Originality/value This is the first disabled young people-led study to investigate quality and rights for disabled children and young people using this rights-based methodology.

Abstract (sommario):

All too often, disabled people are left behind in emergencies, and this is a risk in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This is an important issue, as globally there are approximately one billion people with disabilities. This number includes one in three people aged over 60, who are the group at greatest risk from COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic in the UK has highlighted additional difficulties that disabled people may face. Complying with preventative measures, like social distancing, can be challenging, particular for people who rely on carers. Disabled people may also be at greater risk of morbidity and mortality if they contract the virus, yet in danger of being de-prioritised for care. Many people with disabilities have ongoing healthcare needs, and these need to still be supported during the pandemic. Furthermore, people may become newly disabled as a result of the pandemic, and therefore require appropriate care. Good practice examples have emerged for meeting these challenges, such as guidance for healthcare professionals on treating people with dementia, but these need to be scaled up further and adapted for other settings. In conclusion, it is clear that a disability-inclusive COVID-19 response is needed, both in the UK and as the pandemic unfolds globally. This response will require inclusion of disability measures within data collection, consulting with disabled people, and tailoring responses to be appropriate for this group.

Abstract (sommario):

Community Care reforms have revived interest in service quality. It is argued that the definition of service quality is value-led and that domi nant ideologies have contributed to the continued oppression of disabled people. The design of quality assurance systems is considered and it is suggested that organisations controlled by disabled people have a central role to play in providing disablement services. Two conclusions are drawn. First, service quality cannot on its own be a sufficient condition for disabled people's emancipation. Second, 'quality' has been used as a policy substitute for the necessary con dition of 'equality'.

Abstract (sommario):

Disabled Living Centres are generally accepted as performing a useful service yet there are few data in the literature as to how they do this. The present study used an independent researcher who gained information about 75 consecutive non-professional visitors to one DLC. Visitors were questioned at the end of their visit to the centre and up to 6 months later. Most were significantly disabled with considerable locomotor difficulties. Most came to resolve specific problems and occupational therapists were the most important source of referral. A total of 95 items of equipment was suggested for 48 visitors. By the end of the study, 22 visitors had received all suggested items and most were highly satisfied. The situation was similar for adaptations but the time to deliver these was longer. DLCs were shown to be a most useful and effective resource for those seeking solutions to practical problems arising from disability. This self-help approach in which the disabled person takes the initiative in the rehabilitation process is to be encouraged and makes good use of occupational therapy expertise.

Abstract (sommario):

The vast majority of disabled people live at home for a long time and are cared for by close relatives, while the family caregivers who cover the daily care are often under a lot of stress in terms of health, finances, relationships, etc. In this study, taking family caregivers of disabled people as the research object, more than 500 family caregivers of disabled people from six cities and counties were investigated by questionnaire, and factor analysis was used to explore the life satisfaction and its influencing factors of family caregivers of disabled people. Through the analysis, it is found that the life satisfaction of family caregivers of disabilities is generally low, and its influencing factors are ranked in order of importance: care pressure, future expectations, interpersonal communication, social support, and social integration. Therefore, China still needs to introduce more high-level social policies and take corresponding service measures from the perspective of family caregivers to effectively improve the respect and protection of the rights and interests of persons with disabilities and their families.

Abstract (sommario):

Objective: to discuss concepts on disability, facilities and difficulties and report on the learning needs of Community Health Agents (CHA) to work with disabled persons in basic care. Methods: this is an exploratory and descriptive research, carried out in Crato-CE, from March to May 2008. Knowledge, previous skills and learning needs were collected from 76 out of 111 CHA who participated in an awareness seminar, using a questionnaire-type registration card. Data were submitted to the content analysis technique. The project was approved by the COMEPE-UFC (245/07). Results: ninety-two percent of the CHA who concluded steps I and II of the Technical Course for Community Health Agents indicate the need for competency development to work with disabled people and their families, related to the concepts of disability, social inclusion, health-disease process, biomedical contents, health promotion and problem monitoring actions. Conclusion: adequate care delivery to disabled people demands that health professionals develop competencies for this purpose. Community Health Agents’ position turns them into essential actors of these actions in Basic Care. There is an urgent need to develop the competencies established in the curriculum framework of the Technical Course for Community Health Agents, applied to the theme. Descriptors: disabled persons; family practice; professional competence.

Abstract (sommario):

Adopting a conversation analysis (CA) perspective, this paper explores data which include disabled people in three-party contexts, where the institutional goal is to focus on the wishes, voice and agency of the disabled person. It explores 274 occasions where a third party self-selects for a turn, during social care planning meetings and research interviews. Five broad action patterns are discussed, showing how third parties used their epistemic closeness to the disabled person in order to (1) clarify, (2) respond, (3) prompt, (4) expand and (5) challenge. The sequential consequence of these turns depended on how they were heard and taken up by other parties in the talk. The vast majority of third-party turns could be glossed as supportive to the disabled person. Third parties displayed their sensitivity towards the precise moment that they were ‘needed’ in the talk. Occasionally, there were challenges and counterinformings done by the third party, which could be analysed as ‘epistemic traps’. These moments signaled tensions between the best interests of the disabled person and the imperative to foreground their voice.

Abstract (sommario):

Access to justice through the court system for non-disabled persons is trampled upon every day in Nigeria. One can then imagine the plight of the disabled persons most of whom live in abject poverty and constant discrimination from their respective families, religious congregation, educational sectors, Judicial practices and the ineffectiveness of the government policies, which clearly plummeted people’s confidence in the social justice system as well as the entire political structure. Against this backdrop, this study presents the findings of the analyses of these discriminations and Injustices; stemming from basic amenities to prevailing cultural vices, religious practices and lack of commitment on the part of the government. To attend and implement the needs of the disabled persons, which are hindrances to access to justice for the disabled persons in Nigeria. Thus this writer used Therapeutic Day Care Centre (TDCC) as a case study by interviewing the people that work with them as well as primary and secondary data. The conclusion points to the needs of these ‘special’ groups or disabled persons that were explicitly listed herein to be strictly adhered and for the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) to take a proactive stand to redress the lawful inadequacies so as to enhance their access to justice.

Specifically, the fragility of the protection measures for the disabled and their families emerged forcefully, and they were all too often abandoned in residences -and in their own homes- as a result of dedicated service closures, leading to the loss of flexible or adequate alternatives and to an often unsustainable burden of care for families. The article first discusses the experimentation of introducing a disability case manager (DCM) in a local context, starting from an interesting drive for innovation exercised by a banking foundation that promoted a participatory process with public and private stakeholders. The second part explores the salient features of the DCM profile in relation to the needs that emerged from listening to local stakeholders, particularly care workers and disabled people and their families. In the last part, the experimentation is presented as a possible innovative path towards improving the quality of life and well-being of disabled people. Finally, several key recommendations are provided for urgent interventions to support disabled people and their families both during and after the syndemic crisis.

Abstract (sommario):

Since it came to power in 1997 the Labour Government has conceived of low levels labour market participation by disabled people as not just an economic concern but also an indicator of social exclusion or social injustice. This article presents some evidence about inequalities between disabled and non-disabled people in the labour market; reviews the evidence on discrimination in employment and discusses the potential of anti-discrimination legislation as a tool to reduce social injustice; discusses sources of social justice in the benefits system; and considers whether people in receipt of Incapacity Benefits should be expected to seek work. It concludes that rights and responsibilities are unjustly distributed between government and disabled people.

Abstract (sommario):

The future market costs of long-term care for older people will be affected by the extent of informal care. This paper reports on projections of receipt of informal care by disabled older people from their spouses and (adult) children to 2031 in England. The paper shows that, over the next 30 years, care by spouses is likely to increase substantially. However, if current patterns of care remain the same, care by children will also need to increase by nearly 60 per cent by 2031. It is not clear that the supply of care by children will rise to meet this demand.

Abstract (sommario):

Frail older people have often had to choose between residential care and staying in their own homes with community care services. Both have disadvantages. The development of very sheltered housing in Wolverhampton has shown that there is a better way to meet the needs of frail and disabled older people.

Abstract (sommario):

A major strategy to prevent the spread of COVID-19 is the limiting of in-person contacts. However, limiting contacts is impractical or impossible for the many disabled people who do not live in care facilities but still require caregivers to assist them with activities of daily living. We seek to determine which interventions can best prevent infections of disabled people and their caregivers. To accomplish this, we simulate COVID-19 transmission with a compartmental model that includes susceptible, exposed, asymptomatic, symptomatically ill, hospitalized, and removed/recovered individuals. The networks on which we simulate disease spread incorporate heterogeneity in the risk levels of different types of interactions, time-dependent lockdown and reopening measures, and interaction distributions for four different groups (caregivers, disabled people, essential workers, and the general population). Of these groups, we find that the probability of becoming infected is largest for caregivers and second largest for disabled people. Consistent with this finding, our analysis of network structure illustrates that caregivers have the largest modal eigenvector centrality of the four groups. We find that two interventions—contact-limiting by all groups and mask-wearing by disabled people and caregivers—most reduce the number of infections in disabled and caregiver populations. We also test which group of people spreads COVID-19 most readily by seeding infections in a subset of each group and comparing the total number of infections as the disease spreads. We find that caregivers are the most potent spreaders of COVID-19, particularly to other caregivers and to disabled people. We test where to use limited infection-blocking vaccine doses most effectively and find that (1) vaccinating caregivers better protects disabled people from infection than vaccinating the general population or essential workers and that (2) vaccinating caregivers protects disabled people from infection about as effectively as vaccinating disabled people themselves. Our results highlight the potential effectiveness of mask-wearing, contact-limiting throughout society, and strategic vaccination for limiting the exposure of disabled people and their caregivers to COVID-19.

Abstract (sommario):

If disabled people are considered as the weak individuals in community, the handicapped children will be more vulnerable as they are lack of the ability to take care of themsselves. The disadvantage of these people is the dependence on others in many aspects of their lives. The Government has issued amble policies in order to help paralyzed people and children, specifically policies related to social security. According to the Children Law No. 102/2016/QH13, the disabled children are ranked in the top 14 of those who are having underprivileged lives. This law is really important in reducing the handicapped children's burdens in life by providing them with caring and sharing from others. Despite this attention of the Government, the policies for disabled children are given less prioritization than those for normal children and disabled adults. In fact, the policies for disabled children are the same as those for children under 6 years old as well as the disabled adults. However, there are a number of troubles from processing to implementing the policies, negatively affecting the opportunities of accessing to social security of disabled people in general and handicapped children in particular. As a result, those disadvantaged people still have many difficulties in life need to be shared from others.

Abstract (sommario):

Aim. To study of medical and social characteristics of persons disabled since childhood of the first group, their needs for various types of rehabilitation and care for the development of a medical-social model of personal assistance. Methods. A sample study of 194 persons disabled since childhood of the first group in eight regions of the Russian Federation was conducted using a specially developed methodology. The calculations were performed by using the IBM SPSS Statistics Viewer 23. Results. The state of health of persons disabled since childhood of the first group is characterized by polymorphism and polymorbidity. 64.3% of people with disabilities have multiple dysfunctions of organs and systems. In this regard, there are pronounced restrictions on the main categories of life activity. Half of the caregivers (47.4%) spend more than 8 hours a day on organizing care for persons disabled since childhood of the first group; between 4 and 8 hours 29.8%; between 2 and 3 hours 12.9%; less than 2 hours 4.1%. It was found that 32.7% of families spend more than half of their family budget on care (organization of medical and household care, transportation and relocation, organization of training, communication in accordance with age). At the same time, only 30.0% of caregivers work, the remaining 70.0% do not work (do not receive seniority) and will not be able to claim a labor pension. Persons disabled since childhood of the first group are characterized by pronounced restrictions on the main categories of life, the need for constant and regular care of all types, however, 28.4% of this group of people can self-service themselves or with little help from other people. With the presented medical-social portrait, state support for this category of citizens should be carried out in a differentiated manner. The personal assistance model allows parents/guardians of persons disabled since childhood of the first group not only to care for a family member but also to find employment as a personal assistant. Conclusion. Families with persons disabled since childhood of the first group need differentiated support that will allow parents/guardians to care for their family members and work; the personal assistance model could solve these problems.

Abstract (sommario):

The current dual system of benefit provision and service delivery for disabled people has led to substantial horizontal inequities between those on the ACC register and those receiving income tested social security benefits. Whilst there are often distinct differences in the nature of the clientele between these groups, they often have similar requirements, but can receive quite different treatment. The Disability Strategy offers the prospect that a more unified system will be developed, initially in terms of service provision, especially rehabilitation and access to health care. The move to a combined benefit structure raises issues about the fundamental nature of social security, though equality of access to second and third tier benefits should minimise the degree of conflict between earnings related and flatrate benefits. From the perspective of disabled people, the major issue is access to nonincome support, ranging from access to equipment to health care, education and employment.

Abstract (sommario):

This article explores recent developments in the modernisation of adult social care through the lens of changes to English day services. Drawing on wider policy debates, it argues that Disabled Peoples' Movement and governmental ideas on self-directed support, although superficially similar, are growing increasingly apart. It is argued that in the absence of adequate funding and exposure to organisations of disabled people, day service recipients risk moving from a position of enforced collectivism to an enforced individualism characteristic of neo-liberal constructions of economic life.

Abstract (sommario):

Workers in the field of learning disability drew attention to the problem of sexual abuse and learning-disabled children and adults only a decade ago (Sinason, 1986; Cooke, 1989), at the same time that British society first tolerated the knowledge that non-disabled children were being abused. Although guidelines have been produced and voluntary organisations such as the National Association for the Protection from Sexual Abuse of Adults and Children with Learning Disabilies (NAPSAC), the Association for Residential Care (ARC) and Voice UK have made vital contributions, psychiatric involvement and provision is uneven (ARC & NAPSAC, 1993).
