UNDERSTANDING MOVEMENT PATTERN IN HOSPITAL Ar. Shubham Shukla1, Ar. Tauseef Rahi2 Faculty of architecture and planning, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul kalam technical university, Tagore Marg campus, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, 226007, India. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------1.2 Corridors: Abstract - The hospital is crucial to the healthcare system. 1,2,3
These hospitals provide structured, qualified medical knowledge, inpatient facilities. The significance of linkages between various hospital departments and the significance of placing departments appropriately according to floors have both been explored and briefly discussed in this essay. In this work, a thorough investigation has been used to deduce the departments' horizontal and vertical locations as well as their linkages. And the movement patterns have been implemented in accordance with the various user groups.
The width of the corridors must not be less then 3 Mtr. As prescribed in Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS). 1.2 Ramps: Ratio prescribed for the ramp is 1:15 to 1:18 as per Indian Public Health Standard (IPHS).
2. Entry: There are two kinds of entries described firstly entry to the site and secondly entry inside the main hospital building. There should be two different entries for ambulance carrying patients and other one for service and goods crier.
Key Words: Entry, Horizontal Movement Patterns, Vertical Movement Pattern, Out Patient Department, Inpatient Department And Operation Theatre.
1. INTRODUCTION:
Where as in side the block entry depends upon the department placed at the ground floor because the approach to the other floor totally depends upon the lifts and elevators. We have identified the emergency and O.P.D should have separate entry due to their functioning criteria well get to learn ahead. According to GOI requirements, a barrier-free environment is required for simple access for non-ambulant (wheelchair, stretcher), semi-ambulant, visually impaired, and elderly people.
Hospital plays an important role in the healthcare system. These institutions offer organized and professional medical expertise and inpatient facilities and deliver nursing and medical related services twenty four hours and seven days a week. In this research we will be studying about the area circulation of the hospital buildings and there service pattern. this study will help us to have better understanding of the connections between different departments within the hospital building and identify there weak points. And hence we will try to give a relevant solutions of these problem through our research.
3. Movement Patterns: The movement patterns depends upon the different kinds of user groups. The user groups observe to have movement are of four kinds:
1.1 Circulation Circulation inside any building starts right from its entry inside the campus and then inside a block. The circulation pattern can be derived into two types first is vertical which can be carried out by the means of entry and corridors and the other one is made out through Elevators, Staircase and Ramp.

Vertical movement
