OUR STORY
The line of research began after the Boate Kiss fire, in which 242 people died and more than 600 were injured. At the Santa Maria University Hospital (HUSM), the Integrated Center for Attention to Victims of Accidents (CIAVA) was created to assist people exposed to the fire, and today serves survivors of other traumas. Since then we have been working on this theme, integrating clinical and research. Among the topics under study, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety disorders, personality traits, resilience and quality of life are included.
