Healthcare providers' attitudes toward individuals with intellectual disabilities: Implications for education and practice in Saudi Arabia
Background
Healthcare providers' attitudes toward individuals with intellectual disabilities significantly impact healthcare experiences and outcomes. Understanding and addressing these attitudes is crucial for social inclusion and improving the quality of life for individuals with intellectual disabilities.
Aim
This study examines the attitudes of healthcare providers towards individuals with intellectual disabilities, focusing on how these attitudes affect healthcare experiences and outcomes.
Methods
Data were gathered from 284 healthcare service providers, such as doctors, nurses, and other staff, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Results
The findings show notable disparities in discomfort levels across various job roles besides the impact of familiarity and quality of contact with individuals with ID.
Implications
The study suggests that specific educational programs could enhance attitudes and knowledge among healthcare providers, ultimately leading to improved healthcare results for individuals with intellectual disabilities.
