People with disabilities face significant barriers to accessing primary and preventative health care. It is important for medical care facilities and equipment, such as exam rooms and tables, diagnostic instruments and machines, and patient bedrooms and bathrooms, to be fully accessible to people with disabilities. This U.S. Access Board webinar on equity in health care for people with disabilities will feature presentations on standards and resources related to health care accessibility, including inclusive medical equipment, health care facility design, information technology, and communication devices and systems. Members of the public will be able to pose questions during the event.
Please register in advance. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. For further information on registration, visit the Access Board website or contact Rose Marie Bunales at events@access-board.gov.
