Indoor guiding mat [Consideration for visually impaired patients]
Easy-to-install guiding mat! Gentle for both patients and stretchers. It's not too late to implement barrier-free measures in the hospital!
Are you under the impression that simply installing tactile paving is sufficient for patients with visual impairments? How far can one actually go using that tactile paving? When the minimum tactile paving is installed in accordance with the Building Standards Act and the Barrier-Free Act, many hospitals only have tactile paving leading to the entrance intercom or the reception desk. Some individuals feel hesitant to request assistance, thinking, "I was guided from the reception to the waiting area, but it seems busy, so I hesitate to ask to go to the restroom," or "It feels uncomfortable to ask for guidance every time at the reception." In hospitals, there are also patients using stretchers, IV stands, wheelchairs, and elderly individuals, so the installation of tactile paving is often kept to a minimum. This guiding mat is designed to support the walking of visually impaired individuals even in such environments.
