Chemnitz inclusive: Fields of action
Health and care field of action
Health and care services for people with and without disabilities in Chemnitz will be further improved and freely accessible to all in 2030.
All stakeholders in the field of health and care are well networked in Chemnitz. Comprehensive and barrier-free information, also in simple and easy language, facilitates access to care and healthcare services. Counselling and support systems are available in such a way that all people with disabilities have barrier-free access to medical, therapeutic and care facilities.
The professional groups involved are sensitised and trained to recognise and respect special needs. Healthcare facilities such as doctors' surgeries, hospitals and pharmacies are generally accessible without barriers. Communication with patients is organised in such a way that self-determined treatment is possible and patients' rights are strengthened. Sufficient sign language interpreters and communication assistants are available on call.
Goals:
- In Chemnitz, the conditions for disability-friendly and barrier-free medical and nursing care in the inpatient sector are being created
- In Chemnitz, every person under the age of 65 who is dependent on nursing or care should be able to find a place that is barrier-free and meets their needs. This can be in their own flat or house, but also in special residential facilities, care centres or facilities for the disabled
- Barrier-free access to the doctor's surgery or pharmacy
- A barrier-free emergency call for everyone
- Equipping patient libraries in a variety of ways
