To better serve 91����Ƶ State University students with disabilities, 91����Ƶ State University and 91����Ƶ State Physicians recently completed construction of a barrier-free, wheelchair accessible sidewalk from the campus shuttle stop in Raider Lot 20 to the 91����Ƶ State Physicians Health Center, 725 University Blvd.

The wheelchair accessible sidewalk will provide students with better access to the health center. While the state-of-the-art building, which opened in June 2012, was already wheelchair accessible, realized that students who use wheelchairs needed better access from the campus shuttle stop to the health center.

“We recognized that students in wheelchairs, who traveled to the 91����Ƶ State Physicians Health Center, either by the campus shuttle or the campus path, did not have direct, barrier-free access to our facility,” said Alan Marco, M.D., president and CEO of 91����Ƶ State Physicians. “We wanted to make our building even more accessible to those students.”

Construction on the sidewalk, which was a joint project between 91����Ƶ State and 91����Ƶ State Physicians, began in early November and was completed in December. A new crosswalk was painted to designate a clear path from the campus shuttle shelter to the new sidewalk.

In addition to wheelchair accessibility, 91����Ƶ State Physicians Health Center offers , same day medical care, Monday through Friday, noon to 7 p.m.

Students, faculty and staff can be seen without an appointment. In addition, 91����ƵCare offers flu shots daily.
