Equality and Diversity: Disability Awareness Learning Difficulties

Aims of Session What are learning difficulties? How do people with learning difficulties live their lives? What responsibilities do BCH and NHS Bristol have to meet their needs.?

Learning Difficulties? Learning Disabilities? What is the difference in terminology? Why do we use different words to describe the same population? What population are we talking about?

Learning Difficulties Why must we consider their needs They represent about 2% of the population. They are 58 times more likely to die before the age of 50. High levels of unrecognised illness. Reduced access to cancer screening and health promotion.

Why must we consider their needs? Experience multiple health inequalities and social exclusion. Evidence of discrimination abuse and neglect across health & social care Negative attitudes and lack of staff training.

Why must we consider their needs? Legal Duty to do so. Human Rights Act 2005 Disability Discrimination Act Single Equality Scheme; Action Plan Reasonable Adjustments Equal treatment =Different treatment

Practical examples of reasonable adjustments Promoting services using accessible posters/letters Giving accessible information about health conditions. Offering first, last or double appointments. Offering regular health checks

Practical examples of reasonable adjustments Using a different employment process to recruit staff. Outcomes of health appt recorded in a personal health plan. Computer systems that are flagged to highlight special needs.
