dc.description.abstractThe Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) programme was formally adopted via the Integrated National Disability White Paper (Republic of South Africa, 1997) and National Department of Health’s Rehabilitation Policy of 2000. It was incorporated into the Western Cape Government Department of Health’s (WCGDOH) 2030 health care plan as a strategy to improve access of health services to persons with disabilities. Existing literature on the impact of the implementation of CBR globally and particularly within South Africa has found value in CBR for improving the overall health of persons with disabilities (Chappell and Johannsmeier, 2009; Mannan et al., 2012; Thomas & Thomas, 2002). The CBR programme implementation is ten years old within the Western Cape. The study aimed to develop an understanding of CBR implementation in the Klipfontein Mitchells Plain Substructure (KPMSS) and the various factors influencing implementation and sustainability of the programme from the experiences and perceptions of the key role players. The researcher will be reporting on the findings that emerged within the study. They include the History of CBR, the RCWs role, Recruitment, Training, Integration into the formal health system, Challenges within the working environment and Community support and/or acceptance. A qualitative, exploratory design was employed which included all key role players of the CBR programme in the KMPSS, Western Cape
