Abstract (Turkish)

Ankara’daki Engelsiz Parkların Engelli Çocukların Kullanımına Uygunluğunun Değerlendirilmesi

Amaç: Çalışmamız, oyun parklarının engelli çocuklara uygunluğunun değerlendirilmesi amacıyla Ankara’da gerçekleştirildi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya Ankara’da bulunan, belediyelerin internet sitelerinde engellilere özel dizayn edildiği belirtilen beş oyun grubu dahil edildi. Kişi-Çevre-Aktivite Modeli çerçevesinde ebeveyn ve çocuk memnuniyeti, oyun grupları, ve oyun alanında çocuğun nasıl oynadığı yarı yapılandırılmış değerlendirme formu, nicel ve nitel gözlemler ile değerlendirildi. Sonuçlar: 25 ebeveynden 13’ünün (%52), 25 çocuktan 10’unun (%40) oyun gruplarından hiç memnun olmadıkları belirlendi. Parkların görme engelli çocuklar için uygun olmadığı tespit edildi. Bedensel engelli çocuklar için de oyun araçlarının bağımsız transfere uygun olmadığı, çocukların kendi başına oynamasına olanak sağlamadığı, ailelerin oyun gruplarının güvenliği konusunda tereddütlü olduğu tespit edildi. Oyun gruplarında çocukların gelişimsel ihtiyaçlarını karşılayacak çeşitliliğin olmadığı gözlendi. Tartışma: Oyun gruplarının engelli çocuklar için kullanıma uygun olmadığı sonucuna ulaşıldı. Bir standardın olmayışı, gerekli bakım çalışmalarının yapılmayışı ve dizayn profesyonellerinin bilinçsiz tutumu engelli çocukların Ankara’daki oyun alanlarına erişiminde sorun teşkil etmektedir. Bu kapsamda ergoterapistler, Türk Standartları Enstitüsü yetkililerinin, oyun grubu üretim şirketleri, çocuk gelişimi uzmanları, özel eğitim öğretmenleri ile birlikte oyun alanlarını fiziksel ve sosyal ayrıma izin vermeden erişilebilir hale getirmek ve kişilerin memnuniyetini artırmak amacıyla yerel yönetimlerin, oyun alanlarına verdiği önemi artırması konusunda çalışmalar yürütebilir
