Fundamentals
Accessibility
ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act)
Certainly, an important aspect of accessibility
is to ensure compliance to standards mandated
by Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The
The Americans with Disabilities Act specifies
requirements such as wheelchair access to
sidewalks, restrooms, telephones, and drinking
fountains.
In fact, the ADA has many requirements that are
specifically related to accessibility to health care
facilities. These range from stipulating parking
requirements (10% of parking must
be suitably located and designated for
disabled/handicapped patrons) to the space
between the opening of the operatory and
the dental chair (32 " ).
As of this writing, the ADA provides a very
complete checklist online at: www.accessboard.gov/ada/.
In addition, you may
contact the ADA directly for consultation, if
needed.
Getting Physical
While ADA is what most people think of
when they think " accessible, " there are
many other considerations beyond ease
of movement in and around the clinic. Just
as important as the layout of your clinic is
the physical location of your office. It's essential to
evaluate how suitable your intended site is to your
target population. Think about these questions:
* Is the site located on (or within very easy
walking distance of) bus or train routes? In urban
areas, expect that 40% to 70% of patients will
be at least somewhat dependent on public
transportation.
* Are the access roads to the site in good
condition?
* Are there close-by cross walks so that patients
can traverse busy streets with relative safety?
22
* Is the clinic centrally positioned for your target
population? Surveys of Medicaid beneficiaries
in urban areas indicate that they prefer services
located within three miles of home.
* Is the site easily described with driving
directions, or will patients need a map and
compass to find it?
* Is there adequate parking? Cities have standards
for parking allocation including parking
designated for people with disabilities.
* Will signage be easily visible from the road?
* What complementary services are co-located
with your dental clinic or in close proximity?
(Consider both integrated primary care services
within your program such as medical, pharmacy,
mental health, and social services, but also
nearby services like banks, grocery stores, and
other shopping).
* Is the neighborhood relatively safe or will
patients feel that it and neighboring businesses
are potentially intimidating? If so, should you
consider adding security services?
