When Walking Fails: Mobility Problems of Adults with Chronic Conditions by Lisa Iezzoni
Posted on 2010-04-14
|  |
More In this wonderful book, Lisa Iezzoni opens a window to the overlooked world of people with mobility problems. She draws from extensive interviews of 119 mobility-challenged people (whose insights she quotes liberally), undertaken during her many months of policy research as a Robert Wood Johnson Health Policy Fellow. Her material is also a product of her experiences with her own mobility problems, which developed during medical school, where she experienced distressing prejudice and intolerance. Few physicians have received training in this area or know how to discuss mobility problems with patients and where to refer them. Many people live with impaired mobility, and there are many effective interventions and approaches for improving their lives, yet only a small fraction of these people receive the assessment and care that they need. It is important for all health care professionals to be aware of and deal with issues related to problems of mobility in adults. The book begins with a systematic survey of the epidemiology of mobility problems (which affect about 10 percent of the adult population), the conditions that cause them, and the effects of these problems on health care and costs to society. Iezzoni liberally intersperses facts with often heart-wrenching quotations from patients and anecdotes of her personal experiences.
