Abstract
Introduction. Buildings of medical institutions are subject to moral and physical deterioration, which makes them unsuitable for modern sanitary and hygienic standards, safety requirements, and more. Capital repair is one of the key solutions to this problem. However, this is a complex process that requires careful consideration of various factors that can affect the effectiveness of the repair. This article aims to explore the approaches to designing medical institutions during capital repair.
Materials and methods. The authors study the regulatory documents for major repairs used in design. They also consider completed and under-construction medical institutions in Moscow and the Moscow Region.
Results. According to the results of the study, the authors identify six key approaches to the design of medical institutions during major repairs: ensuring mechanical, sanitary, hygienic and fire safety; creating a comfortable space; achieving building functionality for effective work organisation; ensuring accessibility of the facility for people with limited mobility; implementation of measures for energy efficiency and rational use of energy resources; compliance with uniform architectural, planning and interior solutions for medical institutions united by a common type or organisational affiliation. Specific examples of the implementation of each of the listed approaches in real projects are given.
Conclusions. To achieve maximum effect in the design of medical facilities during capital repairs, it is recommended to follow these approaches, which can significantly improve the quality of renovated medical institutions, increase the comfort and safety of patients and staff, and help to save resources and extend the life cycle of buildings.
