INTEGRANDO SUSTENTABILIDADE, CONFORTO E HUMANIZAÇÃO NA ARQUITETURA DA SAÚDE

Abstract

This article primarily focuses on the development of an architectural project for a general public hospital. It addresses the relationship between sustainability and comfort in hospital architecture, highlighting how these elements contribute to creating more humanized health spaces. The efficient use of resources and attention to environmental impact are emphasized. The study also highlights significant differences in the quality and accessibility of health services in Brazil, with special attention to the urgent need for improvements in hospital infrastructure in Mato Grosso do Sul and the city of Naviraí. Through a descriptive approach, the limitations and potential of the Municipal Hospital of Naviraí (HMN) are explored, as well as architectural design standards. Notable case studies are also included, such as the University of Arizona Cancer Center and the Sarah Kubitschek Lago Norte Rehabilitation Center, which illustrate innovative and patient-focused practices in hospital architecture.
