Study Notes
Disability Models
- The Medical Model focuses on what is wrong with the individual, implying that the person's disability is the problem.
- The Social Model focuses on what is wrong with society, recognizing that social, economic, political, and environmental conditions need to be changed to facilitate full enjoyment of rights by people with disabilities.
Stereotypical Questions
- Examples of questions that reflect the Medical Model:
- What is wrong with you?
- Did you move here because of your health problem?
- Does your health problem / disability prevent you from going out as often or as far as you would like?
- Examples of questions that reflect the Social Model:
- Are your difficulties in understanding people mainly a result of their inability to communicate with you?
- What deficiencies in your housing caused you to move here?
- Are there any transport or financial problems preventing you from going out as often or as far as you would like?
