Research reveals that architectural innovations enhance patient-centered care in cancer hospitals, addressing space and infection challenges.
The design of cancer hospitals plays a pivotal role in enhancing healthcare delivery by creating environments that support patient recovery, operational efficiency, and staff well-being. This research investigates architectural innovations in cancer hospital design, focusing on patient-centric principles, functional zoning, technological integration, and sustainability within the Indian context. By evaluating existing guidelines such as NABH, AERB, and NBC standards, along with global best practices, the study identifies strategies to address challenges such as space constraints, infection control, and patient privacy. Through case studies of leading cancer hospitals, the research proposes a comprehensive framework to guide architects and policymakers in creating adaptive, efficient, healing environments that cater to India's growing cancer care needs.
