The health problems and care services for the disabled are important public health issues in the society. This paper aims to provide an overview of health promotion initiative based on a disability social welfare institution - Spring Sunshine Center for Intellectual Development (SSCID) in New Taipei City, Taiwan. The SSCID launched a health promotion committee in institution to organize health issues for persons with intellectual disabilities in 2007, and conducted a series of health promotion initiatives such as institutional health profile analyses, annual health check-up, polypharmacy evaluation, weight management, physical activity, oral health, rehabilitation, health aging planning. In 2016, the SSCID launched a programme - Health Promoting Hospital and Health Services Accreditation System which regulated by World Health Organization. We try to initiate a comprehensive health promotion and health management programme to provide a supportive health environment for people with intellectual disabilities and their caregivers who working in institutions, to increase their health. |
