LITERATURE STUDY OF HOSPITAL

TREATMENT AREAS
The requirement for treatment areas in the past few years has increased tremendously , the treatment areas should face north and have a central access.
OBSTETRICS
This department apart from looking after deliveries has to keep in mind the complications during pregnancy and child birth therefore it is essential to have a
treatment room right next to the delivery rooms.
ROOM PLANNING
Among the central delivery rooms is an observation room with large glass windows as well as waiting and admission areas with contraction rooms. With this
there should be a clean workroom(12 sq.m) , a non-clean workroom(12 sq.m) , a mid-wives workstation(20 sq.m) and a staff rest room (15 sq.m) and a staff and
patient WCs.
INTERNAL MEDICINE TREATMENT AREAS
Depending upon the size of the hospital , there can be : cardiology,angiology,pulmonilogy,endocrinology and gastroenterology. The basic facilities comprises examination rooms (25 sq.m),
An administration office (15-20 sq.m) between the senior physicians room (12 sq.m) and the chief physicians room (20-25 sq.m) , an archive room and patient waiting areas . Staff stand
by rooms (15 sq.m.) should also be provided.
RADIOLOGY
It includes special areas like X-ray diagnosis , radiotherapy and nuclear medicines. The radiology department should always be close to
ambulance entrance and because of the great weight of the equipments (upto 14 ft.) it is sensible to plan such areas on the ground
floor. The rooms of the individual disgnostic areas must be so arranged as to minimise the distance between them . A connecting
corridor which can be used simultaneously as a store , dictating room and a switchroom. The size of the room depends upon the use of
the room and what the room contain : for example , sonography,mammography, and jaw X-ray and admission rooms which need to be
20-30 sq.m. WCs should be installed in the X-ray rooms for stomach and intestinal inspections. The admission room for
computertomography(CT) must be 35 sq. m. The walls , ceilings and floors must be sheilded with lead sheeting.
LABORATARIES ;FUNCTIONAL DIAGNOSIS
The laboratory department is concerned mostly with the preparation and processing of blood , urine and faecal samples . It is often
separated from the treatment and nursing areas , the connection to the other departmnets being through a special pneumatic tube
dispatch system. The laboratory itself should be in a large room with built in work surfaces (standing work places) to offer a high level of
flexibility. Specialist laboratories are added on a separate rooms. Subsidiary rooms include rinsing rooms , sluice rooms , disinfection
rooms , cool rooms , rest rooms and WCs for staff.
FUNCTIONAL DIAGNOSIS
It is playing an increasingly important role in hospitals due to advances in heart and thorax research and the rising number of patients with heart , lung and circulation problems. Flexibility in the design is
absolutely essential to accommodate the wide range of techniques and equipments used in such departments. A direct connection with the laboratory department is beneficial , but not essential. A data
link to the the radiology, radiotherapy and surgical departments is necessary to allow combined monitoring (e.g analysis of X-ray results together with ongoing assessmnet of the vital functions).

INTRODUCTION
Primary healthcare is delivered in the community at the first contact point between members of the public and health workers . In the past , people would see their general practitioners either at their homes or in the doctors surgery.
The advantages for the patients are shorter waiting times and a greater possibility of being to receive a diagnosis and treatment without having to be referred to another doctor.
Some basic planning bubble diagrams showing the pattern of the design in a general hospital .
The main core of the primary care service is the general medical practice , with the emphasis on the general practitioner ,
modern healthcare centres increasingly comprise nursing and other professional staff of primary and community
healthcare team.
A primary halthcare centre therefore provides a range of medical services including : consultations , treatment
diagnosis , minor surgery and health education . These centres can offer great flexibility and tend to serve an
average population of between 10,000 to 30,000 people.
TYPES
Hospitals may be subdivided into the following categories : smallest (up to 50 beds), small (up to 150 beds), standard (up to600 beds)
and large hospitals.
PLANNING CONCEPTIONS
Location : the site should offer sufficient space for self contained residential areas and hospital departments.
Orientation: the building should be between north-west and north-east. For nursing ward facades , south to south-east is favourable :pleasant
morning sun , minimal heat build up , little requirements for sun-shading , mild in the evening.
