HOSPITAL PLANNING AND DESIGN

OVERVIEW

Hospitals are complex type of buildings;


It comprises of a wide range of services.
Diversity is reflected in breadth and specificity
of regulations, codes, and oversight that
govern hospital construction and operations.
The wide-range of functions - including highly
complicated mechanical, electrical, and
telecommunications systems - requires
specialized knowledge and expertise.

HOSPITAL PLANNING AND DESIGN

OVERVIEW (Cont..)
Typically, hospital design incorporates direct
input from owner and key hospital staff early
on in the process.
The designer, however, has to advocate for
patients, visitors, staff, and suppliers who do
not generally have direct input in the design.
Good hospital design integrates functional
requirements with needs of its various users.

HOSPITAL PLANNING AND DESIGN

Hospital Zones
Basic form of a hospital is ideally divided according to functions - into 3 zones:
Nursing Zone: Bed-Related Inpatient
Functions
Clinical Zone: Outpatient-Related Functions,
Diagnostic and Treatment functions
Support Zone: Service Functions

Physical relationships between these functions


determine the hospital configuration.

Design Brief & Operational Policies


They should include
A statement of functional content;
Statements of principal operational policies affecting the
whole hospital (material handling, catering, etc);
Operational policies for each department outlining:
objectives, functions and requirements;
A schedule of accomodation (or Functional Space
Program, FSP) for each department and service in the
form of a list of activity spaces or rooms;
Equipment schedules (or Bill of Quantities, BOQ) and
level of technology.

Medical Equipment Planner Roles


During the design stage:
1. To determine quantities, sizes, throughput of
essential and complementary medical or nonmedical related equipment (e.g. furniture,
generator, incinerator, etc.)
2. To determine electromechanical requirements
for medical equipment (RDRS)
3. To provide technical specifications of medical
and non-medical related equipment.
