Centro de tratamento e apoio nefrológico em Jussara-GO

Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) represents one of the biggest public health problems, whose treatment in the state of Goiás is centralized in a few cities. This reality imposes on patients from smaller municipalities the need to travel frequently, whichmakes it difficult to complete treatment and family support, in addition to exposing them to the risks of road flow. In view of the lack of adequate equipment for continued treatment, the general objective of this work is to develop the preliminary project of a Nephrological Treatment and Support Center in Jussara-GO, with emphasis on the user experience and the promotion of well-being. The qualitative research is based on the analysis of data on CKD, the study of pertinent legislation, a bibliographic review and tchnical visits to health care establishments, in order to understand the design demands and humanization strategies. As a result, the architectural proposal aims to design a functional and welcoming space that includes not only hemodialysis sessions, but also a multidisciplinary treatment, based on the integration of environments and connection with nature, contributing to the improvement of the quality of life of patients, family members and the work team.
