This is just a brief introduction of what learning
disability and mental health awareness is about.
Learning disability and Mental health awareness is
learning disability and mental health education. I know that sounds confusing
but what it means is people with disabilities and health problems teaching
people without people with disabilities and health problems about disabilities
and health problems. I do agree that sounds a right tongue twister but there’s
no easy way to put it in a short way.
Whether people with disabilities and health
problems like it or not we are put on this earth to have disabilities and
health problems but why would we like it? All the same this how is whether
other people like it or not. All the same people with disabilities and health
problems have rights to a life as much as anyone.
No one is
saying that everyone in the world without disabilities and health problems
dislikes us but then as a nation and society I guess a lot of people would be
shocked to how much of society, the system and etc have not got the time a day
for people with disabilities and health problems to a point we hopeless,
useless, pointless, worthiness, hard work to others, cost the country where we
born a lot of money and almost as if we shouldn’t have been born in the first
place. No one should be made feel as if they don’t belong in this world should
they? Anyone would think we’d plan the way we are when we didn’t. Why should we
be made to feel guilty for having disabilities and health problems when we are
not to blame?
I am not say
you personally are against people with disabilities and health problems if the
truth is known you are not against us at all but as a society and nation let’s
stop treating us like we are not real people, we may have disabilities and
health problems but we are human beings just like people without.
Let’s think about your life and our life, if you think
what’s involved it’s not much different to your but we just need the right
support for it to be equal to us. Like you we are all different ages and we
come from different generations. For most of us it’s not too late to make a
difference but for the new people that have come into this world that have
disabilities and health problems let’s improve their lives better than the last
and past generations have been. Think about what you have got or even had that
someone else may need the right to access whatever in their lives. Here are
some ideas.
· Health
· Home
· Nursery/
play school
· School
· College
· Job
· Learning
to drive
· Leaving
home
· Partner/
relationship/marriage
· Children
- · Social lives
Education in
learning disability and mental health is teaching people without to teach,
support, may be care for and understand people with disabilities and health
problems depending what line of work you do.
For example if you are a Learning Disability nurse work in a care home
you care, if you work in school, college or university you teach. In most jobs
you do all of those. You may even do different things if you're in University
to build you up to the job you want to do.
So
what is involved in learning disability and mental health education? Here some
things you will learn.
· Introduction to learning
disability and mental health.
· Different kinds of disabilities
and health problems.
· Accessible information (Easy Read)
where you can learn how to make information easy for people to read and
understand.
· Communication how you can learn to communicate
with people with disabilities and health problems for example learning sign language
when communicating with people who are deaf.
I agree
there’s a lot of work in Learning Disability nursing compared to other nursing because
for example communication
needs, support needs, a lot of people need information easy read and etc.
Learning
disability nursing is real nursing just like other nursing because we are real
people like other people so we are human beings like other people. Another
reason why Learning Disability nursing and Mental Health nursing is real is
because the lives of people with disabilities and health problems matter as
well as yours. We are human beings just like you, we just need more help and
support than you.
Learning
Disability and Mental Health can come together it can be one other the other.
Bear in mind that a lot of health problems do link to disabilities.
There
may be some old reports on her some information if not all information may
still be in but still possibly teach you a lot. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/ouch/2011/12/disability_news_roundup_assist.html
