Objective:
To evaluate the activities of patients with neurodisabilities and assess their insertion problems in the professional world.
Methods:
It is based on medical records of 267 patients (224 with neurodevelopmental diseases and 43 with neuromuscular diseases), aged 16-25 years, followed in the transition clinic of young adults in the neurorehabilitation services of a tertiary center.
Results:
Nearly half of them (46.8%) were in a protected environment, 37.08% studied and only 3.4% worked. Their studies are much longer and they are less in university than Swiss people of same age. The competitiveness criteria are no mental retardation and to be completely independent. Finally, 29.2% reported work problems, the foremost being the lack of adaptation in the workplace.
Conclusion:
These results highlight the need to increase the integration of young adults with neuromotor disorders in the labor market.
