Accessible Transient Lodging
Description
As the summer vacation season is well underway, traveling and lodging is essential to everyone, including people with disabilities. This webinar will address and clarify requirements in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Accessibility Standards for hotels, motels, and other types of transient lodging facilities. Presenters will provide the required number and dispersion of compliant guest rooms and suites with mobility and communication features. Presenters will also review accessibility requirements for guest accommodations, such as sleeping areas, bathrooms, kitchens and kitchenettes, storage, signage, fire alarms, and phones. Other common amenities, such as check-in counters, fitness centers, swimming pools and spas, bars and restaurants, and conference rooms, will also be covered.
Video remote interpreting and real-time captioning will be provided in this webinar.
Questions can be submitted in advance of the session or may be posed during the live webinar. Participants can also earn continuing education credits.
