"The purpose of this book is to provide a single resource aimed at upper level undergraduate or beginning graduate students in Interior Design or Architecture programs wishing to understand Healthcare Design in a conventional studio setting. It is the hope that it can also provide a resource as the student moves into their professional career. The book primarily examines ambulatory facilities and the spaces that are typically included within those facilities. It covers a variety of typical medical specialties, clinics and ambulatory care facilities typically within the 5,000 square foot range. Hospital settings or large long term care facilities are not covered here, although, because they are familiar to so many, typical hospital rooms are examined in some detail in Chapter 10. The book is set up to lead the student step-by-step through the design of a range of typical healthcare facilities. The chapters are organized to logically establish a design process starting with the underlying rationale or goals of specialized practices and then move on to holistically analyze the needs of the patients, medical and general staff, as well as visitors. This approach enables the designer to develop spaces that efficiently accommodate the functional aspects required to provide optimum medical treatment as well as meet the emotional, psychological and physiological needs of all stakeholders. (look at defining, it is covered in following chapters) The users of this book are expected to possess basic knowledge and skills of design, drafting and space planning. Design exercises can be completed either as hand drawn or with the use of computer drafting. Projects are designed to be developed and used in a studio classroom setting or independently"-- About the Authors ix -- Acknowledgements xi -- Chapter 1 Introduction 1 -- Organization 2 -- Design Exercises 2 -- Additional Resources 2 -- Getting the Most Out of This Book 3 -- Companion Website 3 -- Additional Resources 3 -- Chapter 2 Evidence-based Design 5 -- What Is Evidence-based Design (EBD) 5 -- Origins of Evidence-based Design – A Brief History 5 -- Importance to Design 6 -- Principles and Process 7 -- Attributes of Evidence-based Designers 8 -- Associated Organizations 9 -- Additional Resources 9 -- Chapter 3 General Elements of Healthcare 11 -- History of the US Medical System 11 -- Codes, Regulations and Industry Standards 12 -- Specialized Facility and Mechanical Requirements 12 -- Specialized Demands on Healthcare Workers 18 -- The Built Environment’s Role 18 -- Additional Resources 19 -- Chapter 4 Holistic Analysis 21 -- Stakeholders 21 -- Operating Standards, Codes, Profitability + Administrator’s Perspectives 22 -- Holistic Analysis 22 -- Holistic Analysis of the Typology and Its Stakeholders 23 -- Case or Precedent Studies 24 -- Interviewing and Observation 25 -- Integrative Design 26 -- Summary 27 -- Additional Resources 27 -- Chapter 5 Room Requirements 29 -- Prototypical Space Requirements for Areas Found in Most Healthcare Facilities 29 -- Technology 51 -- Resilience 51 -- Additional Resources 52 -- Chapter 6 Major Specialties 53 -- Pediatrics 53 -- Dentistry 55 -- Gerontology 59 -- Palliative Care 61 -- Psychological + Psychiatric Practice 61 -- Orthopedic Offices 63 -- Internal Medicine 65 -- Alternative + Naturopathic Medicine 66 -- Additional Resources 68 -- Chapter 7 Group Practices 71 -- Single Specialty Group Practices 71 -- Multiple Specialty Group Practices 71 -- Employed Physician Practices 72 -- General Considerations 72 -- Typical Shared Functions and Components 74 -- Additional Resources 77 -- Chapter 8 Clinic Practices 79 -- Community Health or Care Clinics 80 -- Urgent Care Facilities 82 -- Facility Specific Treatment Spaces 84 -- Additional Resources 85 -- Chapter 9 Specialized Ambulatory Centers 87 -- Ambulatory Surgery 88 -- Physical Therapy 91 -- Cancer Treatment Centers 93 -- Dialysis or Kidney Treatment Centers 96 -- Additional Resources 98 -- Chapter 10 Architectural Considerations 101 -- Sustainability 101 -- Structural Systems 103 -- Shell or Exterior Envelope 104 -- Mechanical Equipment + Technology 105 -- Interior Construction 106 -- Materials 111 -- Medical Equipment + Technology 111 -- Adaption + Resilience 112 -- Codes 113 -- Additional Resources 113 -- Chapter 11 Lighting 115 -- Review of Basic Lighting Principles 115 -- Natural Light 116 -- Artificial Light 119 -- Occupant Concerns 119 -- Additional Resources 123 -- Chapter 12 Interior Finishes + Furniture 125 -- Healthcare-Specific Considerations 125 -- Interior Finishes 127 -- Furniture 129 -- Additional Resources 131 -- Chapter 13 Biophilia 133 -- What It Is….and What It’s Not 133 -- Why Biophilia Is Important 134 -- Integrating Biophilic Elements 138 -- Attributes + Elements of Biophila 138 -- Application in Healthcare Facilities 141 -- Additional Resources 141 -- References 142 -- Chapter 14 Health + Well-Being 143 -- What Is Well-Being + Why Is It Important 143 -- Implications for Medical Facilities 143 -- Elements + Strategies in Healthcare Settings 144 -- Rating Systems that Address Well-Being 148 -- Foundations of a Healthy Building 149 -- Long-term Implications 150 -- Additional Resources 150 -- Appendix I Base Plans 153 -- Appendix II Assignments and Exercises 161 -- Glossary 173 -- Index 181 -- by Mark Karlen, Saglinda H.
