Description
Summary:Specific data reveal a high incidence of people with disabilities, both motor and cognitive, in the southern area of ​​the department of Magdalena, Colombia. The absence of centers for the disabled in this geographical area obliges them to move to the municipal seat to find it difficult to access these services, the cost of transportation being an obstacle for the target population, which is mostly low-income. Due to this last condition, they tend to resort to informal caregivers (understood as informal caregiver, any individual in charge of a person with a disability with little knowledge of specific care). In view of the absence of centers of this type, the construction of a Physical Conditioning Center for People with Disabilities located in El Banco, Magdalena is promoted; whose target population is the municipalities and townships located to the south of the department and surrounding departments such as Cesar and Bolívar. It will be projected to serve approximately 640 people per day. The Physical Conditioning Center for People with Disabilities will consist of a 4-level building plus a basement; pools for hydrotherapy; game's zone; area for physical therapy; parking lots and multiple green areas with a lake; all of these connected by inclusive footpaths. Given the long distances along with the conditions of poverty and the lack of inclusive public transportation, it was necessary to design routes that would facilitate people's access to the project. The execution of this project provides an effective solution to the most vulnerable population with disabilities, creating spaces for inclusion and opportunities that generate a better quality of life for the community. The Center for Physical Conditioning for People with Disabilities is a social solution that contributes to the prosperity and growth of each of the people in the south of Magdalena and its surroundings.
