如今中国医疗能力有限的矛盾日益明显。病人大量拥入较发达城市的现状,已经成为一种无奈的选择,导致病人过分集中而造成大医院的医疗资源紧张。高层病房楼是大势所趋,既能有效提升医院的服务能力,又相对节约土地和资源。病人及家属对于病房楼的使用评价通常都是从垂直交通系统开始,因此这是一个关乎病人感受的重要环节。通过研究垂直交通的现状和利弊,对高层病房楼的人性化设计有一定的意义。 Nowadays the contradiction between limited medical capacity in China is becoming increasingly evident. The fact that a large number of patients have embraced the more developed cities has become a helpless choice that has led to the over-concentration of patients and the strain on medical resources in major hospitals. High-rise ward building is the trend of the times, both to effectively enhance the hospital’s service capacity, but also relatively save land and resources. Patients and their families usually evaluate the use of the ward from the vertical transport system, so this is an important part of the patient’s feelings. By studying the status quo and pros and cons of vertical transportation, it is of some significance to the humanized design of high-rise ward buildings.
