A Health Handbook for Women With Disabilities


(azw3,epub,mobi,pdf)


Women with disabilities often discover that the social stigma of disability and inadequate care are greater barriers to health than the disabilities themselves. A Health Handbook for Women with Disabilities will help women with disabilities overcome these barriers and improve their general health, self-esteem, and abilities to care for themselves and participate in their communities. This groundbreaking handbook was developed with the help and experience of women with disabilities in 42 countries women whose disabilities include blindness, deafness, amputations, paralysis, learning difficulties, small stature, epilepsy, arthritis, and cerebral palsy.

The book is full of useful advice on:

Caring for daily needs with limited access to equipment

Having healthy and safe sexual relationships

Choosing family planning methods that work best with specific disabilities

Preparing for pregnancy and childbirth

Defending against violence or abuse

Interactions of disability medicines with other medicines

Organizing for disability-friendly health care

Health professionals, caregivers for women with disabilities, and trainers working with disability groups will also find A Health Handbook for Women with Disabilities
an essential resource.

A Health Handbook for Women with Disabilities is an outstanding accomplishment, which uses the experiences and advice from women with disabilities throughout the world together with up to date, professional health information. The book captures the real life situations of women with disabilities and their issues, their experiences and their desires. This book is a must-have for health professionals, international development organizations, international women's organizations and anyone who believes in equality for women with disabilities. --Susan Sygall, Co-founder and CEO of Mobility International USA, and a MacArthur Fellow
Long-awaited, this book provides us, and our families and caregivers, reliable information on sexuality, childbearing, aging and all the other life processes that affect every woman. An accessible resource for wisdom about our health. --Venus M. Ilagan, Disabled Peoples International
Packed with useful information, helpful tips, and illustrations that deepen our learning, this practical tool for gaining health rights clearly reflects sound practice and the voices and experiences of women with disabilities from around the world. A breakthrough publication! --Karen Heinicke-Motsch, World Health Organization
