Function Function – all body functions, activities, and participation in society
Disability Disability – any impairment, activity limitation, or participation restrictions resulting from a health condition or personal societal, or environmental factors
Inpairment Impairment – deviation from certain generally accepted population standards of function (WHO,2001)
Functional capacity Degree of disability depends on the individual’s goals as well as the barriers or facilitators that may be present in their physical and social environment
TR and reconceptualizing disability Re-conceptualization of chronic illness and disability into the continuum of health and function helps to remove the stigma and isolation seen in the past Focus on funct. capacity rather than deficits provides optimal life experiences for the individual
