Medical School training
- According to research published in 2016 in the journal Academic Medicine, most medical schools do not offer formal training in caring for people with disabilities; rather, disability often is viewed as an obstacle to overcome, and health-care providers sometimes discount disability’s social, emotional and cultural contexts.
- people with disabilities often feel that their overall abilities, self-knowledge about their conditions and quality of life are underestimated by health-care providers.
