Clínica de neuro reabilitação: acessibilidade de pessoas com mobilidade reduzida em situação de pânico e incêndio

Abstract

The number of people with reduced mobility has grown over the years and is expected to grow even more. The prediction is that in 2060 Brazil will have an age pyramid with a configuration similar to that of Japan today (IBGE, 2018), which is the country with the highest elderly population ever recorded, according to the website Agência Brasil. The current scenario of the rights of people with reduced mobility is still precarious, which is even more evident in a situation of panic and fire, in which their needs are not assisted to have autonomy on the escape route. It is important to foresee the safety of this group, as well as to anticipate the worsening of the number of future accidents with the increase of the people with reduced mobility. The present work aims to reflect on the legislation and point out suggestions to better serve people with reduced mobility in a situation of panic and fire, it also aims to propose architectural strategies for targeting in a situation of escape. For this purpose, a preliminary study of a vertical neuro rehabilitation clinic was carried out in the city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. The objective is to produce a space that gives autonomy to this group in a situation of panic and fire.
