Psychosocial

Aspect ofDisability

We use essays written by various disability stakeholders to explore the

values, challenges and issues pertinent to healthcare providers. For

example, we discuss disability in general and then expand the discussion

to discern how race, socioeconomic status, sexual pref. gender, etc.,

might imped access to equitable healthcare. Finally, we examine how

the healthcare providers individual values might prevent or augment

service to these individuals. Forms of evidence: Reflections, synthesispapers. cphillips@astate.edu
