Patient Mobility

Approved Document M sets out guidelines to enable all people to travel around a building without discomfort or risk of personal injury. In a hospital this is particularly important, as patients’ mobility may be impaired through injury or illness and will rely on easy access and navigation of the building.

Approved Document M outlines recommended handrail dimensions to ensure good grip and minimise the risk of a patients arm getting stuck behind it:

  • circular handrails should be between 32mm and 50mm in diameter
  • handrails should project between 50mm and 75mm from the wall
  • the distance from the crank of the bracket to the underside of the handrail should be 50mm minimum
  • return to wall ends are recommended to prevent clothing or carried objects getting caught
