In the documentary, When Billy Broke His Head (2016), we got to see into the lives of individuals who suffer from various disabilities. However, it didn’t seem to matter whether these individuals had a physical disability or a mental disability, they all seem to described the same struggles of, being denied services, difficulties finding a job (for those who are able to work), and having to fill out form annually, if they wanted to remain on disability through the government. The only problem with these forms are that some disabled people are not even able to see the forms, let alone read them and fill them out.…

Evidence-based practice is an anticipated core experience of all health care clinicians irrespective of position. Role modeling and participating in the skills are necessary to develop evidence-based practice into clinical and nonclinical courses and also an important part in developing positive attitudes toward evidence-based practice, that’s the first step for using evidence to guide practice decisions (Winters). One way to accelerate EBP In health care organizations are by obtaining support from entire culture. Advance practice and staff nurses as well as administrators must have the knowledge and have to believe about the importance of EBP and provide critical skills to support evidence-based care.

Vulnerable individuals need to have opportunities to be included in the communities where they live. That includes the choice to direct their own personal outcomes and become integrated in the community with supports tailored to their unique needs. In an effort to achieve equal footing, families need to increase the basic understanding in the community of the complexity of living with a disability, navigate service delivery systems, and build networks and resources that create a sense of independence. To that end, service systems that provide oversight need procedural safeguards. Three agencies that provide these safeguards include the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control, The South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs, and the Bureau of Long Term Care…

I read an article about Medicaid cut would have a negative impact on Special Education Students. Medicaid helps school pay for speech therapy, special education equipment, nursing aids and other needs for disable students. It also reimburses school for health and wellness care that is provided to students living poverty. Since Medicaid funding began, the percentage of students with disabilities who have graduated from high school has increased from 41 percent in 1993 to 65 percent in 2013, according to the National School Boards…

The 'medical model' sees disabled people as the problem. They need to be adapted to fit into the world as it is. If this isn't possible, then they should be shut away in a specialised institution or left alone at home, where only their most basic needs will be met. Usually, the impairment is focused on, rather than the needs of the person.…
Parent management training (PMT) is also known as behavioral parent training (BPT) is an evidence based intervention for families with co-occurring needs such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder. This intervention was developed in the early 1960’s, due to the increase in the need for therapies focusing on the child and parental needs. The pioneers of this intervention were several child psychologists, including Robert Wahler, Constance Hanf, Martha E. Bernal, and Gerald Patterson, they were inspired to develop new treatments based on behavioral principles of operant conditioning and applied behavioral analysis.…
Since its implementation, The Affordable Care Act has alleviated numerous burdens for people with disabilities. Before Obamacare, people with disabilities were regularly at a disadvantage with problems such as expensive medicine and no preventative services. According to WhiteHouse.gov, since the Affordable Care Act has been in place the prescription problem has been greatly relieved, “In 2010 and 2011, over 5.1 million seniors and people with disabilities on Medicare have saved over $3.1 billion on prescription drugs.” This means that many disabled people are not compelled to relinquish other necessities to pay for their medications. Next, thanks to deductibles and co-pays, many disabled people were not…
The trend towards chronic disease management provided by nurses utilizing evidence based practice (EBP) has increased, however barrier for acceptance for nurses as a care team member continues. A pilot study reported by Laughlin and Beisel (2010) reported the evolution, acceptance and barriers of nurses in a primary care setting as a member of the treatment team providing chronic disease management. In addition the study focused attention on the skill sets nurses utilizes to provide care of chronic conditions, emphasized the nurse being uniquely qualified to assess the needs of patients with chronic illness, the nurses ability to formulate a plan of care and facilitate coordination of care (p. 414). Although nurses have the experience and…
Therefore, this leads to concern that the extra costs of disability are simply not covered by existing extra cost benefits such as DLA. Other words, this means that disabled people will lacks the control over their life because they are less likely to be employ and therefore have to rely on benefits. For example, according to Leonard Cheshire Disability ?In the Balance? report found that DLA often failed to cover all additional costs. This means those individuals who suffer from long term sickness and disabilities cannot escape from poverty other than relying on family, friends or…
