DISABILITY physical cognitive mental sensory emotional Developmental or some combination of
these impairment. A disability may be present from birth, or
occur during a person's lifetime.
A disability is a physical or mental impairment that
substantially limits one or more major life activities
such as learning, working, walking, seeing, and hearing.

Individual qualify as disabled if they have had an impairment in the past or is seen as disabled based on a personal or group standard or norm

and various types of chronic disease may
also qualify as disabilities

VISION IMPAIRMENT vision loss (of a person) additional support need limitation of visual capability resulting
from either disease, trauma, or congenital or degenerative conditions that cannot be corrected by conventional means, such as refractive correction, medication.
![Page 11: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
HEARING IMPAIRMENT hard of hearing deafness refers to conditions in which
individuals are fully or partially unable to detect or perceive at least some frequencies of sound which can typically be heard by most people.
Mild hearing loss may sometimes not be considered a disability.
![Page 12: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
OLFACTORY AND GUSTATORY IMPAIRMENT sense of smell and taste associated with aging but can also occur
in younger people Complete loss of the sense of taste is
known as ageusia dysgeusia is persistent abnormal sense
of taste

OLFACTORY DISORDERS Anosmia – inability to smell Dysosmia – things do not smell as they
"should" Hyperosmia – an abnormally acute sense of
smell Hyposmia – decreased ability to smell Olfactory Reference Syndrome –
psychological disorder which causes patients to imagine they have strong body odor
Parosmia – things smell worse than they should
Phantosmia – "hallucinated smell", often unpleasant in nature

DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY disability that results in problems with
growth and development
![Page 19: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
NONVISIBLE DISABILITIES Diabetes Asthma inflammatory bowel disease Narcolepsy Fibromyalgia, or some sleep disorders
may be counted as nonvisible disabilities
as opposed to disabilities which are clearly visible, such as those requiring the use of a wheelchair.
![Page 20: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
CAUSES Common causes of developmental disabilities can
include:
Accidents Birth injuries Congenital / genetic defects Child abuse Drug abuse Head trauma Violence
Arthritis Back pain Heart disease Cancer Depression Diabetes
![Page 21: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
ARTHRITIS AND OTHER MUSCULOSKELETAL PROBLEMS Arthritis is probably the biggest single
cause About 1 in 3 people say arthritis affects
their ability to do their jobs in some way Other muscle and joint problems -- bad
backs, bones that never mend, bad hips -- are common causes of disability too.
![Page 22: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
HEART DISEASE AND STROKE People may live with heart disease for
years or decades. It can severely limit their ability to work. Studies estimate that heart disease is now the reason for 17% of all health costs in the U.S.
![Page 23: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CANCER cancer itself can be disabling,
treatments such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy can also make it difficult to work.
"Cancer is the fastest-growing cause for disability claims,"

DIABETES diabetes is rising fast. Along with
obesity, it's linked to a number of serious health problems, like heart disease
Diabetes is a costly disease to manage, too, in part because of the drugs and supplies.
![Page 25: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
NERVOUS SYSTEM DISORDERS These include a number of conditions
that affect the brain or nerves, such as: Multiple sclerosis (MS) Parkinson's disease Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also
known as Lou Gehrig's disease) Alzheimer's disease MS is a leading cause of disability in
young adults. It most often appears between ages 20 and 40.

PREGNANCY The Family and Medical Leave Act offers up to 12
weeks of unpaid leave. However, it isn't available to many women who:
Are self-employed Work at small businesses Haven't worked long enough with an employer to be
eligible Some employers and a few states offer women
short-term disability payments for pregnancy. The rest have to get by using sick days and vacation.
Long-term disability caused by pregnancy is relatively rare. Women who wind up needing bed rest while they're pregnant or who suffer from complications afterward -- like postpartum depression -- can face serious financial stress.

ACCIDENTS Many people assume accidents are the
most likely cause of disability. But they are actually the cause of less than 10% of disability cases.
![Page 28: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
DISABILITY AND POVERTY There is a global correlation between
disability and poverty, produced by a variety of factors. Disability and poverty may form a vicious circle, in which physical barriers make it more difficult to get income, which in turn diminishes access to health care and other necessities for a healthy life. The World report on disability indicates that half of all disabled people cannot afford health care, compared to a third of non-disabled people.
![Page 29: Limit activity restrict participation activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action participation.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56649f005503460f94c160de/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
DISABILITY AND DISASTERS Individuals with disabilities are greatly affected by disasters Those with physical disabilities can be at risk when
evacuating if assistance is not available Individuals with cognitive impairments may struggle with
understanding instructions that must be followed in the event a disaster occurs
Those who are blind, hearing impaired, etc. may have difficulty communicating during the emergency
All of these factors can increase the degree of variation of risk in disaster situations with disabled individuals
Research studies have consistently found discrimination against individuals with disabilities during all phases of the disaster cycle
The most common limitation is that people cannot physically access buildings or transportation, as well as access disaster-related services
