520 |a Article 25 of the United Nations Convention of Rights of Persons with Disabilities indicates that persons with disabilities should have the right to the highest attainable standard of health without discrimination. There is much evidence that this right is not being enjoyed by persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities, not least through the often poor quality of the healthcare they receive. This paper discusses the major health-related issues faced by people with intellectual and developmental disability. It concludes by calling on the health sector and the community to work collaboratively to improve attitudes and awareness of this vulnerable group, and on governments to direct substantial resources to improve the physical and mental health and wellbeing of children, adolescents and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
