Patient Room, the: Planning, Design, Layout

The patient room is the smallest cell of the hospital organism. Its layout determines the structure of the ward and is therefore a decisive factor for the entire building. Many requirements have to be met. The patient's sense of well-being can be positively influenced by the design, but equally important are the working conditions for the staff. This publication provides a systematic overview of the design task patient room and shows exemplary solutions: both typologically and in selected case studies.
