ledsagerkapasitet

ledsagerkapasitet is a term used in Danish and Norwegian to describe the capacity for accompanying persons or escorts in a given setting. It refers to the maximum number of companions that may accompany a person who needs assistance, guidance, or supervision.

In practice, ledsagerkapasitet appears mainly in transport, events, healthcare facilities, and accommodations. In aviation and rail, for example, a passenger with reduced mobility may be allowed to travel with an attendant who helps with boarding, seating, and daily tasks; in venues, accessibility seating is arranged with space for companions; in hospitals, certain rooms may have capacity for a caregiver.

How ledsagerkapasitet is determined varies. It can be defined by regulations, operator policy, or contractual agreements. It is commonly expressed as a ratio (such as one companion per patient or per wheelchair user) or as a fixed maximum number per group or per booking. In some cases, companions travel free or at a reduced price according to policy.

Ledsagerkapasitet is an aspect of accessibility and inclusive design. Clear rules help organizers plan staffing, seating, safety, and service delivery, while also protecting the needs and rights of people requiring assistance.

Notes: The term is not a universal technical standard; usage and exact limits differ by country, sector, and organization. Variants of the word may appear in Danish or Norwegian texts with similar meaning.
