Person-Centred Learning Disability Services

Learning disorder (LD) is a broad term that refers to several diseases that include difficulty understanding new information, learning new skills, daily management, independent daily activities, and so on. People with LD may have difficulty speaking and writing, listening comprehension, and mathematical calculations. They may also suffer from a lack of constant attention, time, and social skills. The difficulty is one of these areas entitles a person to use the services of specialized social care and services for people with disabilities. Because learning disabilities are a lifelong condition, people with LD need ongoing support and regular guidance. 

Human-centered approach - The need for time

The lack of communication and understanding of the common and special needs of people, which often characterize mainstream education institutions, should be addressed. These services should ensure the overall well-being of people by understanding, illuminating, connecting, advising, and praising them. These general welfare elements must be accompanied by the satisfaction of many special health care needs. Services for people with disabilities are the best way to meet these needs.

The basis of a personalized approach to educational services is that the services are individualized and owned by people supported by people. Current social services institutions show that people with learning disabilities still do not have the opportunity to participate and the freedom to make decisions about their care. It is time for educational services to become more responsible. It is widely observed that most nursing homes and hospitals are late in providing patient-centered care.

Placing people with disabilities at the heart of the planning process can work wonders in the flow of LD services. According to some studies, adopting this radical approach can achieve better viability for about 70% of people. There is a common misconception that people with LD do not want to communicate and make decisions. Studies have shown that people with profound and combined disabilities can express preferences and decisions about things that directly affect them.

Another aspect that should be given high priority is the involvement of people's families in the decision-making process. Many service institutions tend to treat family members as outsiders. This attitude must change and play a key role in the decision-making process.
