[AI] EC plans to ferry disabled, elderly to polling booths

2016-05-09 Thread M Sivakumar

EC plans to ferry disabled, elderly to polling booths
TNN | May 9, 2016, 03.07 AM IST
Chennai: In a novel initiative aimed at improving voters'
participation in the assembly polls, the Election Commission is
considering ferrying persons with disabilities (PwD) and senior
citizens to polling booths in Chennai.

"Differently abled persons and senior citizens residing in care
centres would be transported to the polling stations. We are
contemplating carrying it out on a pilot basis," corporation
commissioner and district election officer B Chandra Mohan told TOI.

With the Greater Chennai Corporation equipped with adequate resources
like vehicles, official sources said there would not be any constraint
in providing the facility.

This comes against the backdrop of the EC's drive to achieve 100%
polling. Steps have been taken to provide ramps and wheelchairs at
polling stations to facilitate PwD to exercise their franchise without
any inconvenience. The Election Commission has directed that disabled
electors are provided with provisions such as designated parking
spaces close to the entrance of polling premises and special care for
electors with speech and hearing impairment.
Special stress has also been laid for sensitisation of polling
personnel regarding the unique needs of the differently abled.

"People with disabilities would be given priority at polling stations,
wherein they need not have to wait in queue for voting. Moreover, care
takers, who accompany them, will be allowed to vote on a priority
basis," said an officer involved in the election process.

[AI] Mothers of disabled kids more depressed, say experts

2016-05-09 Thread M Sivakumar

Mothers of disabled kids more depressed, say experts
Mothers of children with intellectual or physical disabilities were
likely to have a more negative emotional status due to worries over
their kids. On the occasion of Mother's Day on Sunday, psychiatrists
and child care experts in the city said that such mothers tended to be
more depressed due to an uncertainty of their child having a "normal"
life.

"Mothers, being the main caretakers of children who have disabilities,
were largely found to be depressed. Depression was even higher among
mothers whose child had a significant co-morbidity," said Aditi
Shardul, Project Head Vihang, a multi-disciplinary group in Omkar
Balwadi, which assists differently-abled children to study and develop
with respect to their limitations with normal children.

"The degree of the child's dependency on the mother in daily
activities of life - bathing, feeding, clothing and mobility- increase
the burden of caring. Caring for children with multiple disabilities
increases the maternal caregiving hours. Co-morbidities such as
epilepsy, cerebral palsy and psychosis make the children dependent on
their caretakers for life. The presence of any chronic illness in a
child with learning difficulties is found to be one of the predictors
for psychiatric morbidity in the mother," she said.

"It has also been found that maternal depression has a greater impact
on such children with intellectual disabilities and treatment of the
mother's depression may benefit the child. In fact, better quality of
information given to parents about their child's illness and recovery
process reduces feelings of insecurity and helplessness. Parents who
received information and advice in caring for their children reported
positive feelings toward caring for their children. Such an
intervention helps the mothers to cope faster through the caring
skills taught to them," said Shardul, who is also a psychiatrist.

Maharashtra Association of Resident Doctors president (MARD) Sagar
Mundada, who is pursuing a post-graduation in psychiatry said,
"Parents developing depression secondary to them having a child with
intellectual disabilities is called as caregiver morbidity. Many
times, the chronic duration of illness of children and resulting
disability coupled with the extra care that parents, especially
mothers need to take, stresses them out a lot."

"Autism and intellectual disability are permanent and any amount of
treatment will not make the children alright, this leads to negativity
in mothers and they end up in depression. The parents' sometimes
subconsciously wish that their child had not been born at all. But
these feelings impose guilt on the conscious mind leading to emotional
turmoil within," he explained.
Saying that mental illness has a huge psychological impact on the
mothers, Shardul recommended medical services offered to the disabled
child should also be extended to the family, especially to the
mothers, who are the main caretakers.

"Counselling services, treatments, and regular screening of the
mothers should also be included in the protocol for management," said
Mundada."
