There are things that can be done very easily without much additional cost or effort, such as:

• Including ramps as well as stairs.
• Providing suitable door handles and openings for people with limited manual dexterity, such as levers instead of knobs
• Use the “closed-fist rule” where suitable handles are used that can be operated with a closed fist, allowing access to everyone
• Space considerations as per anthropomorphic parameters
• Ergonomic keyboards and a thorough assessment of work stations and seating
• Standing stations for those who prefer to work in this way
• Different sized spaces for those who prefer to working alone and others who prefer working with people around them
• Multi-sensory safety alarms (auditory; visual), and large-print instructions for emergency and safety equipment
• Textural and different coloured walls and surfaces for visually impaired, and mange changes in elevations along walkways and corridors
• Smart technologies and apps that can help staff adjust their ambient environment as per their own personal preferences, such as lighting, heating and glare.
