Dispersion
Accessible bedrooms should be dispersed among all units or departments providing overnight stay and among different classes of rooms (private, semi-private, etc.). Industry practice and needs assessment can be used to further determine the distribution. For example, a greater number might be located in general surgical units than in pediatric and obstetric wards. Different units may be subject to different scoping requirements, such as an orthopedic wing (where 100% of patient rooms are required to be accessible) within a general hospital (where only 10% of patient bedrooms must be accessible).
