Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study identified that rehabilitation professionals provided outpatient rehabilitation, home-visit rehabilitation and provision orthosis to PWDs. They also recognized the difficulties PWDs faced in accessing health care due to poverty, the spread of disuse syndrome, and the lack of caregivers in PWDs’ families. However, the prevention of disuse syndrome, the provision of nursing care methods, and the intervention of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) were not mentioned as future challenges. Therefore, it is essential that rehabilitation professionals including occupational therapists conduct prevention of disuse syndrome, provide intervention for ADL and facilitate participation by PWDs in urban areas in Jordan.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
シリア紛争は今世紀最大の人道危機と称され,現在もヨルダンに留まらず,多くの国にシリア難民は停留している. またその難民には戦傷や先天性の障害を有する難民が含まれる. しかしながら,難民障害者の現状や支援課題について明らかになっていない. 本研究成果は,社会的に脆弱な立場にあるシリア難民障害者の現状とその有効な支援について検討し,今後の支援方策を検討していく上で社会的な意義がある.
