Barrier-free in the HCC

For all the renovation and maintenance work carried out in recent years, apart from the observance and implementation of all legal regulations, special emphasis was placed on monochrome, opaque and non-slip floor coverings. In addition, our wall designs are full of contrasts, handrails and railings start from the ground, the lighting design is largely glare-free and nursing and nursing rooms are available beyond the required level.
