What does a hospital architect do differently?

They plan around clinical flow, hygiene, staff workload and strict healthcare rules, which a general architect usually does not account for.

Can a general architect design a hospital?

They can draw the building, but they often miss the workflow and safety details that decide whether it functions well in practice.

Distance equals time, so short, clean routes save minutes across thousands of daily journeys and ease pressure on staff.

Separated routes, correct airflow and scrubbable surfaces are built in, so the building itself limits how infection moves.

High patient volumes, tight budgets and little room for post-construction correction make right-first-time planning essential.

Usually yes, because the gains in efficiency, compliance and avoided rework outweigh the cost over the building’s life.
