A new look for tomorrow's health facilities.
Leland Kaiser, American healthcare futurist, said "the hospital is a human invention and as such can be reinvented at any time." In the future, our healthcare model will be reinvented to support a proactive healing environment based on providing patient, family and staff comfort. Facilities must be functionally planned as well as attractively designed with an aesthetic appeal and therapeutic environment. Tomorrow's health facility types will be created superseding the traditional inpatient and outpatient-reoriented hospitals. These new facilities will incorporate changing technologies, demographics and serve continually changing modes of operation.
