SUMMARY - Accessibility in Healthcare

Healthcare accessibility—the ability of all people to reach, enter, and use healthcare services regardless of disability, age, or other characteristics—remains a persistent challenge in Canada's healthcare system. Physical barriers prevent wheelchair users from accessing clinics. Communication barriers leave Deaf patients unable to understand their diagnoses. Cognitive accessibility gaps mean people with intellectual disabilities receive inadequate care.
