Provide context-appropriate wayfinding in all outdoor areas and entrances
Rationale: Accessible, clear, and comprehensive navigational signage placed at key locations supports those with varying cognitive and physical abilities, decreasing anxiety associated with wayfinding and promoting walkability in both indoor and outdoor settings for all.
For the most accurate strategy and documentation requirements, please refer to the digital scorecard made available on the Fitwel Platform.
