Los últimos tiempos y lo que hemos vivido en la pandemia por COVID-19, nos ha permitido darnos cuenta y con total certeza que todos los seres vivos estamos íntimamente conectados, entre sí y con el planeta. Un virus que hizo el salto a la especie humana, y que hoy aún no se sabe con precisión el origen. En cuestión de meses puso en jaque el estatus mundial, demostrando lo íntimamente conectados que estamos. Esta pandemia puso de manifiesto lo importante del concepto de “un mundo, una Salud” (en inglés, One health), concepto que se empieza a estructurar desde finales de los años noventa, mediante el cual se articula la salud humana y la sanidad animal (domésticos y silvestres), como elementos interdependientes y que interactúan íntimamente con los ecosistemas en los que habitan.

Rehabilitation Personnel

This paper describes a situation analysis of the rehabilitation personnel, employed by the state and non-governmental organisations, and the services available for people with disabilities in one health district in Cape Town. The recurrent cost of employing the rehabilitation personnel is analysed to determine how funding is allocated within the district. The results indicate that most expenditure on personnel is at two state institutions in the district, with 76% of the expenditure at the regional psychiatric hospital and its residential facility for people with a profound intellectual disability. The balance - 24% of expenditure - is the cost of employing rehabilitation personnel who provide a district level service. Seventy percent of this district level expenditure is at one special school that accepts 6% of children with disabilities in the district. A high percentage of intellectually disabled children and adults, with or without physical disabilities, do not have access to rehabilitation. There is minimal expenditure on employing rehabilitation personnel at the community heath centre. The only expenditure on community based rehabilitation is provided by the non-governmental organisation. The study demonstrates the inequitable distribution of funding for rehabilitation services within one relatively well-resourced health district and makes recommendations to facilitate change.
