Read the detailed description
Attitudes determine our behaviour to some extent. Health professionals should have a global perspective of disability. They must provide treatment to people with disability and care for them, but also should accept them with no judgements or discrimination. The general objective of this study is to know the attitude towards people with disability of Nursing and Physiotherapy students in the University of Cadiz. Method: This is a descriptive, correlational, transversal and synchronous study. A total of 200 students participate in the study (91 from the Bachelor's Degree in Nursing and 109 from the Bachelor's Degree in Physiotherapy). The 'Attitudes towards people with disability Scale' was used.
