Abstract

“FUNPRA adult assistance foundation” is a nursing home located in Cañar that offers integral and continuous geriatric care to the elderly in the community. Its objective is to provide quality services and humane treatment to preserve and recover the physical and emotional state of the elderly. They provide personalized attention, individual and group development approaches through the application of recreational activities and personal assistance, oriented to the physical and psychological environment. This project is focused on the development of the 48,23% of the first floor. It lacks spatial distribution, furniture and relevant anthropometry within targeted areas for staff administrative, care staff and for the elderly. These situations cause the insufficient progress of the geriatric center and staff development in general. They have as an objective adapt the spaces oriented for senior citizens. Their mobility is not interrupted and they can move in the center with total autonomy. The project also adapts to the the employees neccesities, promoting a readjustment of administrative, kitchen and dinning room. The staff of this center develop their work successfully because the interior architecture now is adapted to their skills.
