In essence, this model focuses more on the negative attributes of people with disabilities. For instance, it highlights that people need caring for, have trouble going out, and things which suggest their disabilities are the problems. Also, non-disabled people decided what kinds of lives people with disabilities should have in terms of, what school they should go to, where they should live, or whether or not they should be employed. As we can see, people with disabilities had little control over their lives according to the medical model approach. In the 1960s, people with disabilities were mostly shut away meaning that there was no real need to make buildings wheelchair accessible.
Introductory Awareness of Models of Disability Describe the medical model of disability: This model view disability as a ‘problem’ to only the individual with the disability and not to any other. Describe the social model of disability: This views society as the disabling factor, by designing things to suit the needs of the majority, rather than the needs of disabled people. Outline how each of the models has developed and evolved over time Medical model: This model has developed a lot over time. Rather than care being institutional orientated, many people are now in community based care settings, allowing them to feel included as a valuable part of society. Society has changed to view the strengths of individuals with disabilities, rather
Under the medical model, these impairments or differences should be 'fixed' or changed by medical and other treatments, even when the impairment or difference does not cause pain or illness. The medical model looks at what is 'wrong' with the person, not what the person needs. It creates low expectations and leads to people losing independence, choice and control in their own lives. 1.2 Describe the social model of disability The social model of disability says that disability is caused by the way society is organised, rather than by a person’s impairment or difference. It looks at ways of removing barriers that restrict life choices for disabled people.
There was a need to try and cure people with disabilities. This model focuses more on the negative attributes of people with disabilities, it highlights that there is a need for care, that people struggle to go out and other things which suggest that disabilities are problems. People with disabilities are left with very little control over their lives according to this approach. All decisions about education, housing and employment etc… were taken out of their hands and decisions were made for them. This invariably meant that people with disabilities were mainly shut away in institutions with no real need for society to change at all.
This can be a barrier for them because it means they cannot achieve their own dreams and goals in life as well cannot be independent and control over their life. Access inside the building can also be a barrier for example someone using a wheelchair will not be able to get in and outside of the building if there is not a lift which will prevent them from using the range of services. For the individual who is partially deaf person in work or at school or colleges will not be able to listen the fire alarm if it is on or if there is no visual signs. If some with partially deaf attends the school or college and there is no loop system in classroom than it will have bad impact on their

The powerful other believes that their health care is under the control of health professions. This way could show you how much control you have of your life and help you to improve that control.

Children who have run away behaviour those parents find difficult to manage alone. Also children who truancy off school is another behaviour that may lead to the child’s needs to be placed in the foster care systems. Deaths: Sometimes children have to be put in care because family are unable to care for the child after the death of a parent children maybe looked after by the local authority most often it is because the child’s parents or the people who have parental responsibilities and rights to look after the child are unable to care for them.

Some may take it upon their hands while others will shy away and let the question, “Whose responsible?” be left unanswered. Those who take responsibility will learn more directly from the mistakes they made and correct them next time they do that same piece. The people who shy away will learn another way eventually and it could be too late for them to correct it and move on. That is just what happened in “The Veldt”. The parents could not fully correct their mistakes in the end which made the house replace the parents.
Hmmm, here goes. As a sociologist who views society via conflict, I say prostitution is the result of a lack of government social programs for low income families. The everyday strugglesjust to survive among the poor in this country (and others) propels these young people to the streets to earn a living. The church organizations are not doing enough to provide for these people either. Law enforcement does not do enough to enforce the laws that should keep these individuals off the street corners.
