"Accessibility differences between Visitable, Handicap, and the ADA"
by Bart Binning, Ed. D
As I transition into becoming “elderly” (which I define as surviving four strokes and being prescribed a life-style restricting blood thinner like Eliquis), I find myself being much more retrospective. For example, I now recognize that there are differences between Disability (the metal or physical limitations a person has as defined by the Americans with Disability Act or ADA), Handicap (the disadvantage one experiences because of a disability), and Visitable (a subset of handicap dealing with the disadvantages associated with old age, which may or may not be covered by the ADA).
Before we begin a discussion of handicap vs. visitable, we should have a brief review of
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in everyday activities.[1]
The ADA defines a person with a disability as someone who:
has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, Some examples include:
Actions like eating, sleeping, speaking, and breathing
Movements like walking, standing, lifting, and bending
Cognitive functions like thinking and concentrating
Sensory functions like seeing and hearing
Tasks like working, reading, learning, and communicating
