From healthcare infrastructure to holistic healing - Vol.87(7), Jul - Mumbai Indian Institute of Architects 2022 - 48-51p.

The healthcare sector in India is growing at a rapid pace
and contributing immensely to the growth of the quality
of services. The sector is expected to grow several-fold in

there is an imminent need to introduce green concepts
and techniques in this sector, which can aid growth in a
sustainable manner.

equipment and manpower.
