The hospital was not always associated with the place where one goes to be cured of an illness, except in the event of a risk or emergency situation. The hospital's first major paradigm shift dates back centuries. The French philosopher Michel Foucault, in the work Microphysics of Power, chapter “The birth of the hospital” (2012), reports the emergence of the hospital as a therapeutic unit, of intervention on the disease and the patient. Before the 18th century, the hospital was essentially an institution providing assistance to the poor or, rather, separation and exclusion. At that time, the hospital maintained the function of a “die”, a place where to die. At that time, hospital professionals were religious and volunteers, doctors made sporadic visits, the place did not have the function of curing the sick, but rather trying to ensure the salvation of the soul at the time of death. Thus, the hospital was a kind of transitional environment between life and death, spiritual salvation and isolation of individuals "dangerous" to public health. The novelty in the 18th century was the establishment of a hospital, therapeutic medicine. This transformation of hospital medicine took place in an attempt to "purify" the harmful effects of contagious diseases or prevent economic and social disorder. The reform began in the maritime hospitals, with the creation of quarantines to prevent the spread of epidemics through the people who disembarked. During this period, also the formation of the individual, his capacity and aptitudes, started to have a price for society. With the appearance of the rifle at the end of the 18th century, armies became more technical. Soldiers must learn to handle the new weaponry. As a result, the “price” of a soldier exceeds that of simple labor and the cost of the army becomes an important budget chapter for all countries. “When a soldier is formed, you cannot let him die. If he dies, he must be in full form, as a soldier, in battle, and not from illness ”(FOUCAULT, 2012, p. 178-9). Based on this economic bias, soldiers began to heal so that they did not die of illness. And it was necessary to guarantee control so that, when healed, they returned to the battlefield. It was in this way that the administrative and political reorganization of the military hospital environment was born. The change occurred based on a tactic called discipline - technique that implied constant surveillance and monitoring of the sick. It was the introduction of disciplinary mechanisms in the then confusing space of the hospital that enabled the practice of medicalization. The economic reasons, the price attributed to the individual and the desire to prevent the spread of epidemics were the causes of the “disciplinary examination” to which hospitals were subjected. But if the disciplinary power is entrusted to the doctor, this is also due to a transformation in medical knowledge. It is, therefore, in the adjustment of these two processes that the displacement of medical intervention and discipline occurs, which is at the origin of the medical hospital. From the moment the hospital is conceived as a therapeutic place, the doctor becomes the main responsible for the hospital organization. “This constitutes, therefore, a documentary field within the hospital that is not only a place for healing, but also for recording, accumulating and training knowledge.” (FOUCAULT, 2012, p. 188).

Great place to live.

Excellent infrastructure, family condominium, up to date maintenance, best condominium to live in.

A very lively afternoon at the family barbecue! Great condo!!!

Very good, and the best condominium in this region, complete and commerce at the door (bases, restaurants, supermarkets, banks, etc...)

the best condominium located on Estrada dos Bandeirantes, as it is far from favelão, or better, Espigão, and also far from some taverns, which are dark, poorly attended and put on loud and terrible music, which unfortunately is close to my condominium. It's worth living there, I know people who like it a lot!!!!
