“Fe­wer Bricks and Mo­re By­tes”: Di­gi­ta­li­sa­ti­on in Hos­pi­tal Buil­dings

The pos­si­bi­li­ties of ap­ply­ing in­te­gra­ted di­gi­tal sys­tems in hos­pi­tal de­sign are im­men­se. You’­re in­vi­ted to find out mo­re how Deerns de­mon­stra­tes this po­ten­ti­al with ca­se stu­dies.

“Fe­wer bricks and mo­re by­tes” is about get­ting the most out of a hos­pi­tal’s in­fra­struc­tu­re by le­ve­r­a­ging di­gi­ta­li­sa­ti­on with pa­ral­lel po­si­ti­ve im­pacts:

A. Sig­ni­fi­cantly im­pro­ving he­alth ca­re, hy­gie­ne and sa­fe­ty
B. Ram­ping up ef­fi­ci­en­cy and pro­fi­ta­bi­li­ty.

How is this achie­ved?

By in­cor­po­ra­ting smart tech­no­lo­gy and be­ha­vi­our-ba­sed de­sign that is:

1. Spa­ce-ef­fi­cient
2. Sustai­na­ble
3. Adap­ta­ble
4. Pan­de­mic- and
5. Fu­tu­re-proof

Pro­vi­ding da­ta in an ac­ti­o­na­ble way to ena­bles fas­ter de­ci­si­on-ma­king on com­plex is­sues. This frees up ti­me for me­di­cal per­son­nel to work on other cri­ti­cal is­sues. It al­so dri­ves the op­ti­mal use of as­sets and re­sour­ces, in­clu­ding new me­di­cal tech­no­lo­gies and in­no­va­ti­ons.

The de­sign and de­vel­op­ment of new in­tel­li­gent, fu­tu­re-rea­dy hos­pi­tal buil­dings in­cor­po­ra­ting the­se smart sys­tems be­gins by chan­ging the con­ven­ti­o­nal ap­pro­ach of de­sig­ning fa­ci­li­ties in blocks to de­sig­ning in a mo­re in­te­gra­ted way.
