Planning the Design and Construction of Healthcare facilities is a very specialized field that has begun getting its due only in the last few years in India. This is because we have now come to realize the important role the design and planning of the hospital plays in healing the patient. At Design Edge Architectswe aim to ensure that their design satisfies the people living and functioning in the space they design. We have to carefully design the spaces because a hospital not only includes the patients, but also doctors, nurses, and staff. The design of a hospital must meet all their requirements. Our designers take this duty and responsibility to design accordingly. Right from designing the widths of the staircases and corridors, planning the layouts of areas like the Operation Theatres and Critical Care Units, to providing the required space between Beds in the Wards and even locating the Nursing Stations, etc., we saw how almost all areas of the Hospital needed to be designed about meeting the Patient Safety requirements of the Accreditation Standards.
