At the first we wondered, what was the training?
Then we heard the word "disability", our feeling and thought to those who do begging on the street and who are beggars at traffic light.
We saw and knew them but, is that our business?
Actually we want to help, but someone said people with disabilities are sensitive!
The learning process was going on, and the end of the training, AMAZING that we got our awareness and a better understanding.
For the time being, we were wrong, we have false perception which had given stigmatization to them.
In reality, They live and exist in the environment and community life, becoming part of diverse society. We know that disability is not stigma but characteristic. Having experiencing disability through simulation and role play, this training gave value added to support our profession as a nurse, which certainly will meet and serve the patient with different conditions and patients with various characteristics including patients with disabilities. After attending this training, we may conclude that this training is really useful. We understand to help them; we become more sensitize of uniqueness and diversity.

During the times, we wondered do our services appropriate and accessible for guests with disabilities?
Our hotel is opened for all and do friendly services for all. When we met guests who use wheelchair, guests with blindness, guests with deafness, often we also met the guests who were with their children who have different behavior, how to serve them?
This training answer our questions and removed our confusion. This training gave effective tips on interacting with them.
The benefit that the tips of interaction for persons with disabilities becoming the successful keys of interaction for all guess. A useful example, when we met guess with blindness, the tip is 3S (sapa, salam, sentuh) means greetings, hello, contact. This tip can be also effectively used when we met the elderly guests.

Attaqwa mosque is open to a wheelchair user.
Seeing Laeli, a Wisma Cheshire’s resident for the first time can enter the mosque with her wheel chair.
The mosque staff was quite flexible and accommodative.
“Wheels are their feet. If we clean our feet before entering the mosque, let’s clean their wheels before they enter the mosque,” said one of the staff.
If they come to your place to hold a mainstreaming disability training, immediately arrange your schedule because their information is very important and useful for improving your institute services.

We’re so excited there’s a teacher who taught us about individual differences.
Everyone is different, including our friends with disability.
They have a unique characteristic. My friend with visual disability read with his fingers. They call it Braille.
My friend with hearing disability talks with their hands. They call it sign language.
Learning Braille and sign language was so much fun!

Before join this training, we thought that persons with disabilities is as same as sickness persons.
However, it was false perception!
They are not sick, they have an impairment in their body.
It was fantastic, the training was lead by a team who is persons with disabilities took action sharing their knowledge and experience how to interact with them.
We really learned about their characteristic and life style. By this, we became more sensitive to see, to hear, to talk, and to walk.This training gave a very good contribution.
This activity was not only giving benefits to disabled people but also aging people, sickness people, children and other to have a better service from the church.
