In your table groups, I want you to research and find evidence-based articles that discuss different countries or cultures’ view on disability. Some will claim a religious reason. Some may say that it is karma. Do not use your own experiences. Focus on research and what articles are saying. Pick one particular country or culture that you would like to research. Discussion after: - Does the culture or country claim impact the individual with disability? Why or why not? What about the caretakers or family? Why or why not? - How does is this view the same or different than the context or environment you grew up in? - Think about your view of disability before OT school. Learning more about disabilities, how do you think your view or opinion of disability has changed since starting OT school? Anger- patients expel pent-up energy and avoid initial depression (turning anger onto self)- appropriate emotion at this point Depression- patients exhausted from rehabilitation efforts, social supports, and caregivers are emotionally depleted- not as supportive Disappointment- lack of swift progress is experienced by patient and echoed by significant others Acceptance- coming to term with limitations; willing to use strengths to accomplish meaningful goals and roles **note this does not necessarily imply physical improvement but, an improvement in lived attitude Think about some of your own behaviors or routines you may have. How has the past shaped your outlook on that routine? For instance, growing up and eating at the table. Never eat in the living room. Must finish everything on your plate. How many of you have set goals for the new year? 2024?

Started as the independent living movement in the 1960s in which people with disabilities work together to advocate for decreasing barriers, equal opportunities, respect, peer support, self-respect, self-help, and self-determination. In table groups, we are going to research some of the most common disability culture movements: - Autism - Neurodiversity (includes ADHD) - Deaf community What to look for: - What are the common pillars of the community? - What are the tops stereotypes they are currently trying to address? - How do they view disability?  Use their table groups Assign role loss, depression, PTSD, and substance abuse Use chapter 52: pg. 1069-1074 ainterviews Transtheoretical * use occupational profile let them talk ; just listen it be affected - how will work , activities : - parenting , -use narrative reasoning A Depression disease major injungies heart sel other & stroke - , , mitd moderate , severe , - active acceptance therapy -acceptancea commitment regulate how to continue life anyways ↓ depression & adaptation ↳Pted developing a healing relationship I regulate Veronate so 2.. 2 safety memories 3. recalling part. reconnect 3 4. reconnecting 5.
