Abstract
- Basic Health Units lack infrastructure to guarantee accessibility for people with disabilities, as they often present inadequacies on public roads and lack of access to the entrance to the facilities. Buildings lacking accessibility create significant obstacles to the health of people with disabilities, providing distance between the individual in need of care and the health unit. Therefore, many challenges are faced by this public, and therefore, the objective is to: Know and characterize the faces and interfaces of accessibility for people with disabilities. Given the knowledge explored, it is known that the National Policy for People with Disabilities is a source of technical and scientific knowledge for those who use it, including health professionals, family members, and people with disabilities. Knowing that access to the Unified Health System (SUS) is the main gateway for these patients, this article is of great importance, as it allows reflection on the topic in question and generates new possibilities for discussion. Including people with disabilities in the decision-making process about their own care is crucial. This means respecting their autonomy, listening to their needs, and ensuring they have understandable information to make informed decisions about their health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
