I am happy to see so many legal aspects, I have had concerns that students are "rushed" into something they are ready to start. I am glad to see the unethical considerations that this program is pointing out.

My role, as a dean of nursing, is to ensure we are following the law and treating students with disabilities as a "person", nothing less, nothing more. At the same time, we must be cognizant that we are meeting their needs "to access" the learning journey that gives them the potential for success. 

Student accommodation needs can be met more readily with a proactive mindset versus a reactive one. It's important to have the processes and policies in place to ensure we are meeting all student's learning needs.

This was a great review of the various disabilities and each disability can vary between individuals. Knowledge regarding the different disabilities and what we can do for each as an individual must be taken into consideration.

Accommodations is student driven, there are laws to provide/protect accommodations. We all have a responsibility to understand what are and is not reasonable accommodations.
