Abstract

Hospital design trends in general and residential wards in particular have evolved over time to reflect profound changes in healthcare, whether through advanced medical technology, changes in hospital facilities and functions, or new design concepts.This paper explores contemporary trends in hospital wards design by comparing old design methods that are still used today by engineers, teachers and decision makers in hospital construction and new transformations that reflect the changes taking place and moving towards creating environments that support health and well-being and integrate innovative technologies and sustainable practices in hospital design. It also sheds light on the reality of hospital wards in local and international hospitals to keep pace with the development in the design of this section, noting that the modern trend in hospital design relies on design based on experience and evidence to achieve a better quality of service for patients, and the main quest of engineers of this era is to reach a future hospital that integrates the truth of science, the quality of humanity and the beauty of art.
