Disability is a growing phenomenon, linked to demographic changes, epidemiological and lifestyle as well as technical scientific advances in health. Understanding within the social model, (away from the more focused on the biomedical model focused on disability and health) becomes more and more strength. Understanding and addressing disability from this social model is far from being reflected in practice in Mexico, is a particular challenge for nurses who have given little attention to even the implications for practice from care seen as a proportion of care as well as advocacy.
