Restauración y refuncionalización del Hospital San Juan de Dios : Centro habitacional para la tercera edad en Santa Cruz de Mompós

A proposed restoration and repurposing of the historic Hospital San Juan de Dios in Santa Cruz de Mompox aims to transform it into a residential center for the elderly while preserving its architectural heritage. The study finds that the current hospital facilities do not meet modern healthcare standards, necessitating relocation of medical services to a more suitable location. Instead, the historic building will be adapted to house elderly residents, addressing overcrowding and inadequate conditions at existing local shelters like 'La casa del Recuerdo.' The design prioritizes accessibility, spatial organization, and complementary services (e.g., therapies) tailored to three user groups based on mobility and cognitive needs. By integrating historical preservation with functional reimagining, the project seeks to maintain the site's cultural significance while addressing urgent social housing needs.
