Healthcare Spaces No. 4 (Hardcover)  | Released: 02 Sep 2008

The focus in healthcare is shifting--to managed care, to ambulatory services rather than inpatient care, to specialization for an aging population, and to consolidation by independent institutions into regional networks. The impressive, inspiring designs in "Healthcare Spaces No. 4" reflect those changes, in plans for all types of healthcare facilities, including neighborhood clinics, surgery centers, urgent-care centers, and even vast hospital complexes. The best work from more than 35 top design firms, shown in 800 full-color photographs, make this book an indispensable reference for health-care professionals, architects, interior designers, and anyone interested in the latest health-care trends in our country.
