Centro Cancerológico de Facatativá Cundinamarca: Equipamiento especializado en el tratamiento sensorial

Abstract

According to the National Institute of Cancerology [INC] (2019) reported that in the department of Cundinamarca the incidence of oncological pathologies was one of the highest at national level. On the other hand, the great demand for oncological services, the lack of medical coverage and oncological institutions in the department, mainly in the province of the Western Savannah, does not satisfy the need of the resident inhabitants of the sector. This situation results in the displacement of the population to other sectors of the country, especially to Bogotá, in search of the services that Cundinamarca does not have. With the exception of Bogotá, Cundinamarca does not have good hospital coverage; there are only two specialized oncology hospitals located in Zipaquirá and Girardot; but their infrastructure is still insufficient, since they only have early detection of two pathologies Taking into account the above, it is proposed to design a hospital equipment specialized in cancerology, with sensory spaces that contribute positively to the curative treatment by means of perceptive strategies such as offering natural light and ventilation, color psychology, the implementation of proportion and visual principles, theories of silence, the agricultural activity as a possible place of recreation, among others.
