title: Hospital design--the end of history?
abstract: The paper considers societal and technology changes which are causing us to rethink hospital design. It calls for technology decentralisation and bed flexibility to allow for seasonal and severity patient beds. The authors conclude that is not the end of the hospital but the beginning of an exciting new era.
