Next Generation Healthscapes - ASG, Pufendorf IAS

A significant number of healthcare facilities are rapidly reaching the end of their lifespan. Consequently, there is a wave of ongoing and planned processes for future hospital construction, locally, nationally and globally. But do these processes really consider all necessary aspects of health and wellbeing?
Traditionally, the assessment of healthcare facilities has focused on processes, management, and technical aspects, while patients and staff outcomes have been limited to single perspectives, such as clinical results or cost benefit analysis. To navigate the complex landscape of future healthcare delivery, it is both critical and urgent to adopt a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that combines perspectives and focuses on compassion as an imperative for future healthscapes.
