Abstrakt
Analysis about needs of people with intellectual disabilities in disasters. There is a low number of studies focused on the topic.
Due to the higher prevalence of prior traumatization in people with mental disabilities, disasters can cause re-traumatization or arouse strong feelings of helplessness. People with mental disabilities have a higher need of support and care and an increased risk of long term complications.
People with mental disabilities who have experienced a traumatic event may require special psychological care.
