Public health dimensions of disability
Product Description:
In this chapter we address conceptual models of disability, as well as US and international estimates of the populations of people with disability. We also discuss discrete age groups – children, working-age adults, and older adults – and evidence of health disparities between people with and without disability. Finally, we discuss health promotion directions to improve the health and participation of this population.
