NPSDD and the measure of activity and participation (MAP): employment data Sarah Craig and Anne Doyle, Health Research Board.
Structure of presentation • Introduction to the National Physical and Sensory Disability Database (NPSDD) • Outline of information collected • Overview of the Measure of Activity and Participation (MAP) • Benefits of MAP • Data on employment and participation • Future developments
The NPSDD • Established in 2002 as a service planning tool • Managed by HRB for the DOH • Captures information on current and future need for specialist disability services • Circa 25,000 people
Purpose of NPSDD • Improve accuracy of planning data • Guide future service development • Registration Criteria: • Have a persistent physical and/or sensory or speech/language disability • Less than 66 years of age • Receiving or requiring specialised health and personal social services • Have consented to being on the database
Service user details Therapeutic/rehabilitation services Personal assistance and support Technical aids and appliances Type of disability (physical, visual, hearing, speech and language) Diagnosis Measure of activity and participation (added in 2004) >16 years only 12,444 respondents (2010 data) What is collected?
Measure of Activity and Participation (MAP) • Three broad areas based on WHO’s ICF: • Barriers & challenges • Participation • Extent of restriction • WHODAS II • Difficulties experienced in day to day living
Barriers and challenges • Physical environment • Services, support and information • People’s attitudes • Transport • Laws and entitlements • Income • Climate/weather
Participation restriction • Education and training • Employment • Community/family life • Shopping • Leisure/sports • Services
WHODAS II • WHO Disability Assessment Schedule II • Concentrating • Learning a new task • Standing/walking/washing/getting dressed • Day to day work/school • Community life/dealing with people • Emotional impact of disability
Benefits of MAP • Distinguishes different levels of functioning which may be better indicator of health care needs than diagnosis • Holistic view of disability – ICF • Could assist with move to individualised budgets
Benefits of MAP ctd. • Move away from impairment-based interventions • Determines impact of service on functioning/participation • Facilitates communication across disciplines (e.g therapists)
MAP and comprehensive employment strategy • Remove disincentives and benefit traps, and make work pay • Ensure that people with disabilities are equipped to compete for today’s and tomorrow’s jobs • Improve retention in employment • Ensure that programmes of education, training and employment meet the needs of all people with disabilities
Linking MAP data to service interventions • MAP provides scope to monitor impact of services on participation in employment • Possibility to track over time • Greater focus on outcome of the interventions
The future? • Capture of data for those <16 years • Work to ensure that all cases on the NPSDD are up-to-date • Mainstream use of MAP (e.g. HSE Service Plan)
