Entre sonhos e silêncios: estudo preliminar de requalificação para a Clínica Psiquiátrica Dr. Maia em Campina Grande.

Abstract

Historically, psychiatric treatment and hospitalization spaces have allowed for segregation and violence against people in psychological distress. Previously seen as chronic, degenerative, disabling and evolving, the treatment for severe mental disorders was the hospitalization, mostly involuntary, of individuals in remote and controlled environments for long periods. With the advances in research in psychiatry, the influence of the built environment on the well-being and effectiveness of treatment in patients became evident. In addition, efforts such as the anti-asylum struggle in Brazil have modified the treatment models in the field, which must be continuous. However, the hospitalization of patients is still indicated for acute cases, and should be brief, humanized and with the goal of reinserting the patient into society. In the city of Campina Grande (PB), the Dr. Maia Psychiatric Facility remains one of the most influential care and hospitalization centers in the region since its foundation in the 1960s. This work examined the existing structure of the clinic and had as its main result a proposal for a preliminary study of architectural intervention with the intention of qualifying and adapting the existing space in the area. clinic to the national mental health guideline. For the intervention, design solutions were sought the Evidence-based design (EBD) literature that contribute to the treatment of inpatients, producing clear guidelines for spatiality, acoustic comfort, nursing stations and other aspects of the indoor environment. The project was developed following the Brazilian standards for healthcare environments and the preliminary study scope established by the Brazilian Association of Architectural Offices (AsBEA).
