DEPARTMENT OF DISABILITY

Disabilities is an umbrella term, covering impairments, activity limitations, and

participation restrictions. An impairment is a problem in body function or structure; an

activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or

action; while a participation restriction is a problem experienced by an individual in

involvement in life situations.

Disability is thus not just a health problem. It is a complex phenomenon,

reflecting the interaction between features of a person’s body and

features of the society in which he or she lives. Overcoming the

difficulties faced by people with disabilities requires interventions to

remove environmental and social barriers.

People with disabilities have the same health needs as non-disabled people – for

immunization, cancer screening etc. They also may experience a narrower margin of

health, both because of poverty and social exclusion, and also because they may be

vulnerable to secondary conditions, such as pressure sores or urinary tract infections.

Evidence suggests that people with disabilities face barriers in accessing the health and

rehabilitation services they need in many settings.
