Physical Requirements and Facilities Development Model. New Generation Military Hospitals. Volume I. Space Planning Criteria.
Abstract
The documents contained in this volume comprise a comprehensive manual of basis of planning standards and space planning criteria pursuant to the application of the DOD 'New Generation of Military Hospitals (NGMH)' concepts. This manual is intended for use only by authorized federal and military agencies in the development of specific program for design space requirements for hospitals to be implemented under the NGMH program. The NGMH program is based on optimizing the DOD Base Level Health Care (BLHC) System. The principal method employed to achieve this optimization was the improvement of existing physical facilities planning criteria to incorporate the most advanced current and projected standards in medical practice/education, medical technology, medical facilities concepts of operation and medical facility design.
