Question

if a person with disabilities access physiotherapy services why and how do you modify your communication techniques

Answer 1

Answer:

Communicating with people with disabilities

• use a normal tone of voice—do not raise your voice unless asked to.

• be polite and patient—do not rush the conversation.

• speak directly to the person rather than the person with them.

• ask the person what will help with communication—there are different ways to communicate

Sensory integration activities are the most effective strategies when communicating with people with severe disabilities and sensory impairments. In general, deeper touch is more acceptable than light touch.
