Abstract

People with disabilities globally represent an extraordinarily diverse group of people with varied unique needs and multifaceted challenges. Expanding understanding about prevention, diagnoses, and management of disabilities is an important step toward improving the quality of life and healthcare equity for families impacted by disabilities. Exploring primary and secondary prevention of disability goes hand in hand with recognizing how to diagnose and manage the primary condition and associated conditions. Equipping the community and family to help the members with disabilities thrive includes tapping into resources and expanding knowledge and experience with various disabilities.
