E. Conducting the Factual Survey on the Right to Education of Students with Severe or Multiple Disabilities We conducted a factual survey to propose policy improvement measures to promote the right to education of students with severe or multiple disabilities. The results show that many are concerned about the health conditions of schools, the serious inadequacy of treatment support services, the lack of convenience and educational facilities for students with physical disabilities, the deterioration of facilities, the lack of safety facilities, the heavy dependence on family members due to insufficient commuting support services, and the financial strain due to highThe greatest concern is medical support. This is a matter of life and death for many students with severe disabilities. However, due to the lack of expert personnel, schools and parents are compelled to take on the responsibility of providing medical support in violation of the Medical Service Act. The lack of ramps and elevators at schools is also a serious problem as it can impede students in wheelchairs from evacuating properly in the event of a disaster. The allocation of assistance providers in a uniform manner without giving consideration to the fact that students with severe or multiple disabilities require one-on-one assistance is also found to add to their difficulties in learning activities, healthcare, and response to possible disasters and accidents. F. Conducting the Factual Survey on the Residence and Treatment of Persons with Mental Disabilities in Local Communities We conducted the Factual Survey on the Residence and Treatment of People with Mental Disabilities in Local Communities to develop institutional improvement measures to promote the deinstitutionalization of people with mental disabilities and their integration into local communities. According to the survey, hospitalization is the only option to address acute-phase symptoms, while discharging from mental hospitals is carried out without any specific follow-up plans. The local mental health centers, which are intended to serve as the pivot of mental healthcare and welfare services in each local community, are not functioning properly.
