Designing of the Entrance Lobby of the Hospital
摘要
The entrance lobbies in hospitals serve as the first point of contact for patients, workers, and visitors. They go beyond being transitional spaces, providing essential services like reception, inquiry, registration, and more. The lobby includes facilities such as prayer rooms, self-service kiosks, cafeteria, pharmacy, and various shops. Public utilities like toilets and drinking water should also available. Key considerations include the lobby’s location, infrastructure, layout of service desks, furniture, electrical points, and interior design. Entrance gates, signage, and glass partitions are also important elements. Services outside the lobby, such as screening areas and hand sanitizer stations, are crucial for safety and convenience.
