    The Butaro Hospital project in Burera District, Rwanda was designed by MassDesign Group with the Rwandan Ministry of Health. The 6040 square meter hospital is located on a steep hill overlooking the valley and treats 140 patients. Individual patient wards are located in separate buildings connected by walkways and loggias to reduce infection transmission while providing views of the surrounding landscape. The hospital includes an emergency department, two operating theaters, internal medicine, maternity, and pediatric clinics as well as an intensive care unit.
