The Jackson, Tennessee-based care community debuts a new online journal from which it will communicate advice about caring for those with special needs, as well as any relevant news and announcements.
JACKSON, TN / ACCESSWIRE / September 5, 2022 / Capitol City Residential Health Care, a Jackson, Tennessee-based care community for people with special needs, is proud to announce that its new official blog, as well as its inaugural entry, premiered on August 3, 2022. The subjects addressed by this web-based journal will primarily relate to matters relevant to caring for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as a wide range of other important issues pertaining to the disabled community.
At the outset of the premiere blog entry, titled Capitol City Residential Health Care Shares Primary Care and Intellectual Disability Advice for Medical Students and GPs, the often-misinterpreted term ‘intellectual disability’ is properly defined, providing the foundation on which the remainder of the essay rests. “An intellectual disability is a condition that affects a person’s cognitive abilities and limits their ability to function independently. Intellectual disabilities can be mild, moderate, or severe. People with mild intellectual disabilities may have difficulty with complex tasks such as reading or solving math problems, but they can live relatively everyday lives. People with moderate intellectual disabilities may need assistance with activities of daily living such as dressing or grooming, and they may require special education services,” states the blog, before adding that “people with severe intellectual disabilities may be unable to communicate or care for themselves and require constant supervision.”
Elsewhere in the piece, Capitol City Residential Health Care delves into what causes intellectual disabilities. The organization then provides ways to identify those with intellectual disabilities in a clinical setting, before listing some common health concerns, and outlining some specific considerations for professionals providing care to those with such a condition. By means of a conclusion, the blog states, “Intellectual disability is a common condition that can significantly impact a person’s health and wellbeing. As such, it is essential for primary care providers to be aware of the signs and symptoms of intellectual disability and how to best address the needs of these patients.”
