Abstract:

This study aimed to evaluate the internal structure of the Family Health Units in relation to access for people with physical disabilities and/or sensory. This is a descriptive, exploratory, population-based, conducted in the health units of John‘s municipal Family Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil. To collect the data we used a checklist based on Technical Standard 9050. For the analysis, were applied to descriptive and exploratory data analysis and chi-square test. As a result of 90 evaluated buildings, only 47.8% have access ramp, of these 30.0% have a maximum slope and 32.2% are non-slip floor. 28.9% access happens without staircase handrail and 6.7% by staircase with handrails, and 6.7% with non-slip floor. And only 17.8% of sliding doors have recessed rails. We conclude that we need to recognized that public policies and institutions do not meet the needs of these people, being necessary to reformulate this care and reorganizing health services.
