According to the National Survey of Family Growth, approximately 12% of "women of childbearing age" have a disability, and yet our educational and training programs devote little to no time in preparing us to provide accessible, appropriate, quality services to these populations. This webinar will define the population, identify the sexual and reproductive health needs, barriers to health care and health care disparities for people with disabilities, and present best practices for providing accessible, equitable sexual and reproductive health care for people with disabilities. This webinar will also discuss actionable items providers can immediately implement in their practices to make them disability accessible.
Learning Objectives:
1) Develop an inclusive definition of the populations that comprise people with disabilities
2) Identify sexual and reproductive health needs, barriers to health care and healthcare disparities for people with disabilities
3) Outline best practices for providing sexual and reproductive health care for people with disabilities
4) Identify concrete actions providers can take to improve access to and quality of sexual and reproductive health care for people with disabilities
5) Become knowledgeable on language, culture, and medical equipment suggestions
