8. How Can We Improve Healthcare For Autistic People? Dr Aimee Grant
Autistic people have worse physical and mental health than their allistic (non-Autistic) peers. This includes dying between 16 and 30 years early. Deficit narratives of Autism, discrimination towards Autistic people and significant healthcare inaccessibility all contribute to this.
In this episode, Dr Aimee Grant with host Sam Blaxland discuss how their research looks to uncover Autistic people’s lived experiences and healthcare needs to reduce and reverse health inequalities.
