Description

The flowchart asks you yes or no questions.

Question 1: Is the entrance to your building barrier-free?

• If your answer is “Yes”, go to question 2
• If your answer is “No”:
  • ramps, accessible doors, reserved parking, and leveling the ground can improve the accessibility of your building

Question 2: Are the hallways wide enough for persons with assistive devices, such as electric wheelchairs, to get through?

• If your answer is “Yes”, go to question 3
• If your answer is “No”:
  • making halls and doorways wider, installing automatic door operators, elevators or lifts can all help reduce accessibility barriers in your building

Question 3: Are persons with disabilities able to access all necessary floors, levels and sections of your building?

• If your answer is “Yes”, go to question 4

  • making halls and doorways wider,  installing automatic door operators, elevators or lifts can all help reduce accessibility barriers in your building

Question 4: Can persons with reduced mobility use the washroom in your building?

• If your answer is “Yes”, go to question 5
