Introduction:
From its gradual evolution through the 18th &n19th centuries the hospital has come of age only recently during the past 50 years
A hospital is an integral part of a social and medical organization, the function of which to provide for the complete health care, both curative and preventive and whose outpatient services reach out to the family and its home environment; the hospital is also a center for training of health workers and biosocial research.
Hospital management is the field relating to leadership, management and administration of public health systems, health care systems, Hospitals and hospital networks in all the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors.
The Clinical Establishments (Registration and Regulation) Act, 2010 has been enacted
by the Central Government to provide for registration and regulation of all clinical establishments in the country with a view to prescribe the minimum standards of facilities and services provided by them.
The minimum standards for Allopathic hospitals Under Clinical Establishment Act, 2010 are developed on the basis of level of care provided, as defined below
General Medical services with indoor admission facility provided by recognised allopathic medical graduate(s) and may also include general dentistry services provided by recognized BDS graduates.
Example: PHC, Government and Private Hospitals and Nursing Homes run by MBBS Doctors etc.
Aims and activities :
Improve the patient experience.
Measure and report quality performance.
Adopt to new payment models.
Address the possible impact of health insurance exchanges.
Work on an approach to population health management.
Focus on clinical integration
Explore new physician alignment strategies.
Respond to an aging population.
some of the strategic issues that must be considered are –
• Regionalization
• Pre- planning consideration
• Need assessment
• Plot ratio
• Design for flexibility and expandability
• Fulfill the demand functions
• Emphasize on patient focused hospital
• Focus on energy conservation
Intelligent buildings
• Create a healing architecture
• Aesthetic – an essential requisite
• Hospital architecture
• Go green
Protection from unwanted and unnecessary disturbances in
order to help speedy recovery
Separation of dissimilar activities
Control – the nurses station should be positioned strategically
to enable proper monitoring of visitors entering and leaving
the ward, infants and children should be protected from theft
and infection etc.
Circulation- all the departments of a hospital must be
properly integrated.
(“separate all departments, yet keep them all together;
separate types of traffic, yet save steps for everybody; that is
all there is to hospital planning “– Emerson Goble)

8. Strategies
some of the strategic issues that must be
considered are –
• Regionalization
• Pre- planning consideration
• Need assessment
• Plot ratio
• Design for flexibility and expandability
• Fulfill the demand functions
• Emphasize on patient focused hospital
• Focus on energy conservation
9. • Intelligent buildings
• Create a healing architecture
• Aesthetic – an essential requisite
• Hospital architecture
• Go green
10. Principles of hospital planning
• Protection from unwanted and unnecessary disturbances in
order to help speedy recovery
• Separation of dissimilar activities
• Control – the nurses station should be positioned strategically
to enable proper monitoring of visitors entering and leaving
the ward, infants and children should be protected from theft
and infection etc.
• Circulation- all the departments of a hospital must be
properly integrated.
