This article is a study of accessibility in public buildings, taking as an example the analysis of the reception of the Walter Cantídio University Hospital (HUWC), located in the Rodolfo Teófilo neighborhood, in Fortaleza-Ce, aiming to observe issues such as the accessibility of space and their access to anyone and everyone. This work comes from the optional discipline of Universal Design, taught by Zilsa Maria Pinto Santiago, at the Federal University of Ceará. Digital tools were used to better visualize the location, such as a previous survey of the hospital. The research was carried out using analysis methods to verify the adequacy of the environment to NBR 9050, which were separated into stages of experiencing the site, data collection, data analysis, compatibility of standards and feasibility of a possible project resulting in the perception of the need for changes and the creation of some elements for the adequacy of reception and arrival to the standard, in order to make it universally accessible.
