BACKGROUND
Adults with intellectual disabilities are living longer and experiencing retirement. However, research about retirement experiences is limited.
METHOD
This qualitative study used semi-structured interviews with 10 retired/retiring U.S. adults with intellectual disabilities and an ally of their choice.
RESULTS
Participants described factors that pushed or pulled them into retirement, such as health issues or wanting to spend more time with family. Individuals in community work settings described greater self-determination in their decision to retire. Regardless of reasons for retiring, all participants described initial difficulties with adjusting to retirement but over time people's situation, including their mental and physical health, reportedly improved.
CONCLUSION
Retirement is a significant life transition. More attention is needed about planning and developing age-appropriate and person-cantered inclusive retirement options for older adults with intellectual disabilities, similar to the transition into adulthood and work life.
背景
成年智障人士的寿命延长并开始退休。然而，关于退休经历的研究有限。
方法
本定性研究采用半结构式访谈，对 10 名美国有智障的退休/即将退休的成年人及其选择的盟友进行了访谈。
结果
参与者描述了促使或促使他们退休的因素，如健康问题或希望花更多时间与家人在一起。在社区工作环境中的个人在决定退休时表现出更大的自我决定。无论退休的原因是什么，所有参与者都描述了最初在适应退休方面的困难，但随着时间的推移，人们的情况，包括他们的身心健康，据报道有所改善。
结论
退休是一个重要的人生转折点。需要更多关注规划和制定适合年龄和以个人为中心的包容性退休选择，为智障成年人提供类似于成年和工作生活的过渡。
