Disability general:
Disability is a multi-faceted condition that has multiple interactions between the health condition and:
- external factors: Community attitudes, access to quality care and services & environmental conditions
- Personal factors: mental health, physical capabilities, age, gender
These factors can have a positive or negative impact on the person’s ability and wellbeing to perform activities of daily living (ADLs). Therefore, personal disability can be varied between two different individuals with similar health conditions. They may experience totally different levels of symptoms and problems.
