The Design Should Allow For Controlled Movements Hospitals are characterized by the constant flow of goods and people, and this is a significant factor to consider when putting up a hospital building. Out-patients pathways should be defined and the visitors' routes should direct them to the nursing units without causing distractions to other units in the building. The movement of clean supplies and food should be on a separate path from that of soiled materials and trash. The inflow and outflow materials should also be separated from the visitors’ and patients’ pathways. Additionally, the transfers of cadavers to and from the morgue should not be seen by the visitors and patients.
