Friday December 6, 2024 2:30pm - 4:30pm CST
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are more likely to have poorer health outcomes and a shorter lifespan than the general population. Health is influenced by many factors, two of which are disease burden and engagement with primary and preventive care. In this presentation, we will share our study findings of common medical conditions and primary and preventive care utilization in 158 adults with IDD, as well as common caregiver concerns. We will bring our findings to life through a first-hand account from a parent of an adult with IDD, who will share her personal journey of supporting her son to successfully access necessary preventative care, and the impact this had on their family.
