Abstract
This research aims to determine the current conditions of geographical accessibility to and from healthcare centres in Manizales and Villamaría conurbation through the Enhanced two- step floating catchment area (E2SFCA) method, supported by geographic tools and socioeconomic assessments. The main result is that the average number of beds per 1000 inhabitants in low complexity systems is below the average defined for Colombia and Latin America, thus requiring greater attention in implementing beds to reach the required accessibility levels. These valuations allow concluding that the accessibility of healthcare institutions requires the use of significant calculation tools, such as the E2SFCA method, which has not had great applications within the Colombian territory.
期刊介绍：
GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites is a scientific publication, with an international status. The Journal is issued under the aegis of the University of Oradea, Department of Geography, Tourism and Territorial Planning, Territorial Studies and Analysis Centre (Romania) and the Academy of Physical Education and Sports from Gdańsk, Faculty of Tourism and Recreation (Poland). At the initiative of an international group of specialists, based on an editorial and scientific committee with a wide international coverage, including leading figures in the field, in 2008 was published the first English issue of the GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites. The printable format (2-3 issues per year) is supported by the on-line version. The journal aims to publish relevant contributions in tourism, geosites and other areas whose analysis is related to these fields, standing out through originality and scientific contribution to the knowledge and development of this area. An important objective is to promote academic and applied research based on interdisciplinarity with a complex local and global approach.
