The architect do not have a data about planning patient-centered hospital, do not reflect a demand of patient at the planning step. This study arrange what is concept of patient-centered, recently concept of patient-centered hospital is importantly raised, at centering around a ward that a life of patient is the most influenced. This study make clear character of patient-centered hospital at home, the problem and demand of patient through the P.O.E. The concept of patient-centered was disregarde, when the hospital was planned, in spite of being aimed hospital. At home, the shape of ward did not be developed, did not be corresponded with a demand of patient. But now proposition, which is satisfied psychologic, physical, mental demand, should be attempted.

The purpose of this Guideline is to provide basic standardization basis for planning and designing of the dwellings so that elderly may live, either with their family or independently, an independently comfortable life style. Dwelling facility is defined as a physical area where important activities of daily life are conducted by a person/people and is also the focal place of a family. Therefore, the Guideline classifies the areas where daily activities are conducted by type of such activities and provides standards to countermeasure for natural physical disabilities of the elders.

The purpose of this study was to spatial organization feature and area composition of the over 500beds general hospital that will be expected construct in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do area after 2000year. From this study, we can suggest architectural planning for the efficiency operating of emergency medical facilities that can be used as preliminary data. The Spatial organization of emergency medical facilities are categorize into 4 session as medical examination and treatment, diagonosticradiology, staff, public and the others. We can find spatial organization system and area composition that compare area composition of 6 hospital the subject of research in a emergency medical facilities. The result of this study were as follows : spatial distribution of its field, grasping of spatial organization factor and recognize its merits and demerits should be researched in advance. Through this kind of recognizing emergency system, realistic medical local and condition architectural planning for spatial organization will be operate.

As hospitals change continuously and rapidly, the way of growth and change becomes another important factor in the design of a hospital. The hospitals are adapted for the continuous growth and change during their life span. But the hospitals built in 1970's and 80's have been expanded and reconstructed without any plan of growth and change. So, there is required to the architectural planning on the remodeling and modernization strategy of general hospitals. The purpose of this study is to provide the fundamental data for the reasonable design planning and the basic principles of the construction plan in the hospital remodeling. Thus, this study is to investigate and analyze the characteristics of hospital remodeling, the remodeling planning, and the scheduling process in terms of construction. As a result, this study would apply to design guideline for the remodeling of general hospitals.

This study proposes the basic data on the waiting space in general hospital through to analysis the relationship between behaviors and seat arrangements in the waiting space. Analyzing the relationship between physical conditions and activities in the waiting space, this study is to awaken user to the influence environment, to suggest the planning guideline for the waiting space in the general hospital. Therefore, by observation over the waiting space in the general hospital, the realities, theories and problems can be found in accordance with the hospital planning throughly.

Health sub-centers, which have been established at myon areas by government policy, have provided a basic health care services for unfavorable rural conditions. Health sub-centers would be expected to serve for dweller's fundamental needs of primary health care services. But to accomplish it's function and role, the quality of physical facility should be enhanced as well as staff and financial resources. In this research, through the field survey of rural health sub-centers, the problems of facility planning and design were revealed. And then the basic data for architectural planning and design of health sub-centers were provided.

As a functionally complicated facility, it requires rational strategy to accommodate multi-functional needs to plan a hospital. Ambulatory surgery units located in large hospitals have problems such as longer waiting time and congestion for patients due to complicated planning and organization within limited area, which raise needs for independent ambulatory surgery centers to enable smoother medical treatment for patients. To design an independent ambulatory surgery center, understanding of zoning and layout of each unit needs is particularly required. This study focuses on research of efficient zoning/organization of day surgery unit and circulation arrangements of ambulatory surgery centers by analyzing various examples abroad, which will eventually help finding appropriate way of planning domestic ambulatory surgery centers. Specific area of research includes ambulatory surgery process, programmatic requirements, spatial organization of the facility, layout of surgery unit and circulation arrangements of ambulatory surgery centers.

Recently, the Korean medical system changed with diversification & specialization and the field of medical service is also specialized in these days. Furthermore, it is required to discriminate the existing concept of women's hospital in spatial management. This study performed the literature review of women's characteristics, and trends of women's hospitals survey. And then, the spatial characteristics of selected women's hospitals, which were recently built in Korea, were analyzed. Finally, the planning & design guidelines for future women's hospital were suggested after the completion of case analysis & synthesis.

Facing the aging society in Korea, the necessity of the facility for the elderly is arising as a substitute to cut down the cost and to provide suitable and skillful medical services for the aged and chronical. Among there, health care facilities for the elderly with dementia are considered a essential facility. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare the guidelines for planning and design of the facility. On the bases of survey and analysis, the basic data for planning and design the hospital for the elderly with dementia has been proposed.

The purpose of this study is to provide the direction of facilities planning for the elderly regarding color planning and its general pattern. Color is an very important factor to provide the quality of living and induces an emotional response as environmental elements of facilities. At first, the general color theory was developed through the literature of review and it was applied to the facilities through the survey. Secondly, the collected data were analyzed and the results were derived.
