The pedestrian communication in exterior design of the Institute for Orthopedic Surgery "Banjica" was analyzed in terms of its physical accessibility for people who have some difficulty in mobility. Checklists were used for analysis of different elements that influence users mobility, as well as photo analysis for a clearer display of the established barriers to movement. The results showed the presence of a number of obscales which hinder the movement of certain groups of users, therefore, the spaces of pedestrian communication were evaluated as partially accessible. It can be concluded that it is necessary to provide an accessible environment, arranged with respect to human diversity, to ensure to persons with disabilities, as well as for all other citizens, equal opportunities and participation in all social trends and activities, especially the ability to freely access to all health care institutions.
Key words:
barriers, hospital facilities, people with disabilities, mobility, accessibility.
PRISTUPAČNOST PEŠAČKIH KOMUNIKACIJA U INSTITUTU ZA ORTOPEDSKO-HIRURŠKE BOLESTI "BANJICA"
U Institutu za ortopedsko-hirurške bolesti "Banjica" izvršena je analiza pešačkih komunikacija prema fizičkoj dostupnosti za korisnike umanjene mobilnosti. Korišćene su ček liste za analizu različitih elemenata koji utiču na kretanje korisnika, kao i fotoanalize za jasniji prikaz ustanovljenih barijera u kretanju. Rezultati su pokazali prisustvo brojnih barijera koje otežavaju kretanje pojedinih grupa korisnika, pa je stoga prostor pešačkih komunikacija ocenjen kao delimično pristupačan. Zaključeno je da je neophodno omogućiti pristupačno okruženje, uređeno uz uvažavanje ljudske raznolikosti, kako bi se osobama sa invaliditetom, kao i svim ostalim građanima obezbedile ravnopravne mogućnosti i učešće u svim društvenim tokovima i aktivnostima, a naročito mogućnost da neometano pristupe ustanovama zdravstvene nege i zaštite.
