Scalable Hospital Design

In the current scenario, especially close on the heels of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need for a radical shift from traditional hospital designs to cater to India’s evolving healthcare needs. Research conducted by the Indian Council of Medical Research estimates that there will be nearly 30 million cancer patients in India by 2025. In response to this growing concern, distributed models of cancer-care centres are being designed across the country. In a recent survey, 70 per cent of respondents felt that flexibility is an essential aspect of good design in healthcare spaces. The replicable design of scalable hospital modules in India emphasises upon the potential of such services in future. The prototypical planning of such scalable modules is designed to create a sense of spatial similarity throughout all upcoming cancer-care centre modules in India, which ensures a cohesive and familiar environment for patients and healthcare providers and allows for future expansions. Edifice Consultants, in collaboration with Tata Trusts, executed the Sri Venkateswara Institute of Cancer Care and Advanced Research in Tirupati, one of the first scalable hospital modules in India.
