Description

This module provides a broad overview of healthcare systems, services and technologies and their facilities. It includes a wide-ranging introduction to the cultural, economic, and health status of a society as the context for its healthcare facilities. It explores concepts of health needs together with health policy, service delivery patterns, and the built environment response. In addition, the module will also explore the needs of patients in physical health care settings. These issues provide opportunities to support the key elements to capital planning processes such as business case development, option appraisal and the interaction of the briefing and design process.
