Health Architecture

If we think of future medical science, architecture is not the first thing that comes in our mind, We think about of advances in medical science and its technology enabling better imaging techniques, robotics, and enabling genetic engineering from which miracles are now expected

If we think of current healthcare crises in developing countries, the inescapable reality of these countries is that they can not access to basic medical care needs, which is not possible without healthcare architects

History

If we find similarities between architecture and a physician, we can easily see that both can find themselves faced with similar tasks – the task is to diagnose and heal the ill of their community and society. Both physician and architects need to promote the health of humanity and society

Now health care architects are now shaping the future of hospitals and healthcare facility designs. Now architects are becoming partners in planning, designing and implementing healthcare architectures

It is predicated that this trends of healthcare architecture will change future of medicine in the next 100 years

Benefits of healthcare architecture

Medicine will be able to address more correctly – the causes of diseases, digging to the roots, engineering human genes, chromosomes, and molecules etc. this is necessary for the prevention of the diseases

Healthcare architecture is also helpful to diagnose those diseases and disorders which can not be engineered out of existence and in the case of injury and accident; non-invasive treatments especially drug therapies and extensively replace surgery. for such treatment, in future patients need not to go to hospital for his or her treatment

The healthcare architects are now helping to design and construct medical office buildings, clinics, diagnostic centers and freestanding clinics etc. In future we will see an increased demand for healthcare facilities which will be based on retail model. For example – a medical mall which may consists of all sophisticated medical facilities

Future Scenario

Future Scenario of this healthcare system, which is consists of various hospital facilities like very large compressive hospitals, will be based on retail model in which patient will get various facilities for example remote monitoring, telemedicine and sophisticated data transmissions etc
