Mobile clinic project helps bring healthcare to remote areas
Moved to Care design challenge requires designers to create a clean, sterile environment for small surgical procedures, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website
The Moved to Care design challenge required designers to create mobile clinics — a clean, sterile environment for small surgical procedures; a temperature-controlled space for storing medicinal drugs; and basic wash, toilet, and kitchen facilities, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website. A multidisciplinary team from the U.S. took home top honors in the professional category with a prefabricated mobile clinic design that’s 538 square feet and expands to 1,614 square feet when side decks are deployed.
Plans for the new hospital include approximately 150 inpatient beds, an emergency department, a medical office building and an ambulatory surgery center.
