The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) 1995 aims to end the discrimination that many disabled people face. This Act has been significantly extended, and amended by the Disability Discrimination Act 2005. The come to change when people with disability were facing discrimination. The new act now gives disabled people rights in areas of employment, education and access to goods facilities and services etc. disability discrimination act now require public bodies to promote equality of opportunity for disable people.
For example before was when a person have physical disability, there where no chance of them to get access to the services because of their mobility. When the act came up in 1995 it aimed to end the discrimination that many people with disability were facing, the policy of organizations was to give people with disability the opportunity of access to the services and to have equal opportunity like other people in way of education, employment and also allow the government to set minimum standards so that disable people can use public transport easily and also health centre like GPs, medical centre etc.
Legislation such as disability discrimination Act has given health and social care provider legal responsibility to positively promote equality to disable client to access to the health and care centre. It 's also gives the guideline to promote equal opportunity by treating them with respect and dignity. For example comparing disability and sex discrimination both are equal, why I said both are equal because back to the day woman where discriminated against in area of employment for the reason their gender, they used to consider them as house wife to stay at home to look after children, their husband and to take care of their home when man use to go work.
When sex discrimination was set out the aim of it was to stop the sex discrimination at work. Even now woman 's are employed at work but there still a bit of discrimination going on

The main bases in which people can be discriminated on are; age, gender, race, social class, religion, disability, family status and sexual orientation. Each of them is used by people not just within the health care team but also in the society. Covert discrimination can be demonstrated in the following ways; abusive language, name calling and avoiding physical contact. Overt discrimination can be verified by tone of voice, body language and making assumptions. Task 3 Anti discriminatory practice is an action taken too prevents discrimination against people or service uses on the grounds of disability, disability, gender, class, race, age etc. The values that underpin anti-discriminatory is the equality of welfare which entitles individuals to be treated with dignity and respect from their care givers.
