Health
Health and wellness challenges such as access to healthcare and preventative medicine may increase the development and progression of disability over time and space. For rural people with disabilities, access can be even more limited due to lack of accessible transportation and other environmental barriers.
We work to identify and address these barriers with our health and rural disability research agenda. Our research projects seek to understand the experience of disability, examine alternative models for delivering health promotion services to people with disabilities in rural areas, and leverage existing resources and technology to encourage full use of local services.
People with disabilities experience a variety of health conditions such as pain, depression, fatigue, and isolation that impact quality of life and participation.
