Objectives: to evaluate the accessibility to Primary Health Care Units for the elderly in urban and rural areas. Method: descriptive quantitative
study of 157 primary health care units in Ceará. An instrument with accessibility standards of the Brazilian Norm 9050/2004 for public streets and
access to buildings was used in the study. Results: the assessment of the public streets shows uneven distribution with higher percentage in urban
areas for crosswalks, wide sidewalks, traffic signs (p < 0.0001) and lowered curbs (p = 0.0001), while the rural area presented < 15% of accessible
units. Both had also inaccessible buildings. Conclusions: rural and urban health units have poor conditions of accessibility on public streets and no
accessibility to buildings, jeopardizing the proper care for the elderly by difficult or lack of access.
