Overview

Cross-sectional study explores nursing care experiences of youth with IDD during COVID-19 restrictions, highlighting care competency requirements.

Key Points

  • Quality of nursing care for youth with IDD is limited due to barriers like communication and emotional support.
  • Limited access to care was reported, with themes around attitudes, funding, and knowledge of IDD rights prevalent among participants.
  • A mixed-methods analysis revealed the importance of person-and-family centered care, showing gaps in effective communication.
  • Nursing education and systemic changes are essential to enhance healthcare delivery for youth with developmental disabilities.
