Setting up healthcare infrastructure - Vol.87(7), Jul - Mumbai Indian Institute of Architects 2022 - 81-84p.
The setting up of healthcare facilities is a complex task and
require a good understanding of the need of all stakeholders.
Various factors can affect the planning and design such as
demand, budget, site, type of facility mix, technical feasibility,
economic viability, etc. The location of the site determines
the approach to the facility and the floor area availability.
Demographic survey data and socio-economic profile of the
region have to be analysed to understand the health profile
of the region, thereby working out the demand and type
of facility mix required, and of what speciality discipline is
required, whether the area can absorb more single rooms,
suite rooms or we should have more general ward beds, etc.
