Dr. Wang Mika

Individuals with intellectual disabilities face distinct challenges related to their physical health, which can significantly impact their overall well-being. This abstract provides an overview of the key physical health indicators observed in people with intellectual disabilities and highlights the importance of addressing these indicators to promote their overall health and quality of life. The indicators discussed include obesity and weight management, cardiovascular health, oral health, musculoskeletal health, and sensory health. Strategies to improve physical health in individuals with intellectual disabilities include promoting healthy lifestyles, providing accessible healthcare, facilitating adaptive exercise programs, and creating inclusive environments. By recognizing and addressing these indicators, we can work towards enhancing the physical health outcomes of individuals with intellectual disabilities and fostering a more inclusive society.
