Every year between January 7-14, White Cane Week for the Visually Impaired aims to raise social awareness in the field of disability.
The story of the White Cane began in 1921 when a photographer who lost his sight in a traffic accident in London painted his cane white to attract the attention of the outside world. Over time, this symbol has become a common sign of recognition and support for the visually impaired around the world.
During this special week, governmental and non-governmental organizations aim to draw attention to the importance of eye health, address solutions to the problems faced by visually impaired individuals and raise awareness in society.
In order to provide a more accessible service to our disabled individuals, in accordance with the Quality Standards in Health;
Disabled-friendly parking, washbasins, toilets and bathrooms
Exit ramps, grab bars, elevators
✅ Guidance in Braille
✅ Wheelchair, stretcher and support staff
✅ Priority examination
such regulations have been put into practice.
We continue to work to overcome obstacles together.
