This evaluation reveals gaps in service efficiency and patient comfort in Wangaya General Hospital, highlighting the need for evidence-based design.
The transformation of hospital interior design has moved beyond functional requirements toward holistic approaches that emphasize patient psychology, comfort, and healing environments. This study evaluates the implementation of Minister of Health Regulation No. 40/2022 in the interior design of Wangaya General Hospital (RSUD Wangaya) in Denpasar, focusing on service efficiency and patient comfort. Using a qualitative method with field observations and semi-structured interviews involving patients and medical staff, the study identifies deficiencies in spatial layout, lighting, ventilation, and circulation. The findings reveal that while some aesthetic elements provide a calming atmosphere, the current interior design has not fully supported service efficiency or user comfort. Recommendations are proposed based on evidence-based design to enhance interior quality, ensure compliance with regulations, and improve healthcare delivery in regional hospitals.
