Mobility in Emergencies: Borrowing Wheelchairs for Short-Term Use on Campus
The representative for employees with a disability has purchased wheelchairs that can from now on be borrowed for short-term use in emergencies. You can find them here:
- A5 Library
- Schloss Ehrenhof
- Schloss Schneckenhof
- L1, 1 Room 017
These wheelchairs are intended to be used in emergencies to transport individuals who are injured or temporarily mobility-impaired on campus—for example to the occupational medical service.
- Please note: These wheelchairs are intended for short-term use only. They cannot be borrowed for long-term use.
- After use, the wheelchair must be promptly returned to its place.
Who can borrow a wheelchair?
Anyone can borrow a wheelchair if it is apparent and plausible that they acutely need one—regardless of whether they are a member of the university. However, they must need it for use on campus.
If you have any questions, please contact the office of the representative for employees with a disability.
