The purpose of this collaborative project is to develop a consensus on the disability competencies required for health care providers to deliver quality care to patients with disabilities, and to have these competencies integrated into health education curricula. The site includes the 2019 Core Competencies on Disability for Health Care Education, as well as the Competencies Resource Toolkit and other information to help “make the case” for organizations to support and promote disability competencies in health care.
