The definition of disability
EAKIN P
BR J OCCUP THER , 1985, vol. 48, n° 4, p. 106-108 Doc n°: 20822 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : J - HANDICAP Occupational therapists are heavily involved in trying to solve the problems of disabled people and meet their long-term needs in the community. However, the efficacy of occupational therapists in solving these problems is related to the definitions of disability that they use. Being defined as disabled makes a person 'eligible' for the receipt of various resources. Viewed objectively, are the definitions used any help in resolving the problems of a disabled person in the community ? This article implies that they may not be as helpful as occupational therapists think. Langue : ANGLAIS Identifiant basis : 1985001642 |
