Resources For Healthcare The Developmental Disabilities Resources for Healthcare (ddhealthinfo.org)
is a website funded by the California Department of Developmental Services and
coordinated by the California Center for Health Improvement (CCHI), a
prevention-focused health policy center. The website is a collaboration of
California-based information and programs on developmental disabilities.
The primary goal of the website is to improve the
health of persons with developmental disabilities in California. To this end,
the website is designed to assist physicians and other healthcare providers in
caring for persons with developmental disabilities. It is also designed to
support consumers with developmental disabilities and their families in making
informed health care decisions. The information in the site includes medical
care information for specific syndromes and related issues, health provider
educational opportunities, speaking opportunities, publications, and links to
selected websites. This critical information is not otherwise readily accessible
in one location.
