Hospital patients could be treated in prefabricated drive-through clinics without leaving their cars, according to a concept by architect NBBJ.

The clinics could also be used to administer coronavirus vaccinations, according to the architects.

The prefabricated units “could be especially effective for accelerated vaccine roll-out, as it enables simultaneous distribution to every passenger in the car,” said NBBJ partner Ryan Hullinger.

根據建築師NBBJ的構想,住院患者可以在預製的直通式診所接受治療,而無需離開汽車。

建築師說,這些診所也可以用來進行冠狀病毒疫苗接種。

NBBJ合夥人Ryan Hullinger說,預製單元“對於加速推出疫苗特別有效,因為它可以同時分發給車上的每位乘客。”

The proposal, drawn up in response to the coronavirus pandemic, would see patients drive into special bays outside hospitals or in hospital parking garages.

There, they would interface with healthcare staff through an open car window or door.

“Covid has pushed us to think about breaking out of the boundaries of a traditional healthcare space and actually providing primary care in a totally unorthodox space like a car,” said Hullinger.

該提案是針對冠狀病毒大流行而製定的,將使患者開車進入醫院外或醫院停車場內的特殊區域。

在那裡,他們將通過敞開的車窗或車門與醫護人員進行交互。

霍林格說:“ Covid促使我們考慮突破傳統醫療保健領域的界限,實際上是在完全非傳統的空間(如汽車)中提供初級保健。”

The In Car Care concept involves placing rows of drive-in service bays between columns in existing parking facilities.

Patients with non-urgent conditions could be treated by medical staff in the bays without leaving their vehicles.

Hullinger explained the concept during a live Dezeen talk about wellbeing and healthcare, presented by bathroom and kitchen products brand Kohler.

車內護理概念涉及在現有停車設施的立柱之間放置行進式服務台。

非緊急情況的患者可以在海灣地區由醫務人員治療,而無需離開車輛。

在浴室和廚房產品品牌科勒(Kohler)提出的關於健康與保健的Dezeen現場演講中,Hullinger解釋了這一概念。

NBBJ developed the concept earlier this year after noticing that the Covid-19 pandemic was changing the way patients visited hospitals, often waiting outside in their cars rather than entering the building and using waiting rooms.

“It was driven by demand for convenience and demand for safety,” said Hullinger, who is based at international architecture firm NBBJ’s office in Columbus, Ohio.

“Both of these things have been around for a long time. Healthcare has been happening in the space of a car for quite a while now in pharmacy drive-throughs but [the need for] safety has acutely curved up in the last nine months.”

“There’s a sweet spot here,” he added. “In-car care needs to be explored.”

NBBJ在註意到Covid-19大流行改變了病人去醫院的方式後,於今年早些時候提出了這一概念,該病通常是在車外等候而不是進入建築物並使用候診室。

總部設在俄亥俄州哥倫布市的國際建築公司NBBJ辦公室的Hullinger說:“這是由對便利性和對安全性的需求驅動的。”

“這兩種情況都已經存在很長時間了。在藥房中,醫療保健已經在汽車領域發生了一段時間,但在過去的9個月中,[安全性]的需求急劇上升。 ”

他補充說:“這裡有一個甜蜜的地方。” “需要探索車內護理。”

Unlike a traditional drive-through facility such as a restaurant or pharmacy, where cars queue up and orders are taken through a window, the In Car Care concept would be akin to a motor-racing pitstop, with services brought to the car once it is stationary.

“The beauty of the service bay [approach] is that it’s nonlinear,” said Hullinger. “So instead of the drive-through, where you have serial processing, you get parallel processing.”

“And you get better human interface because you’re not reaching through an architectural window to interact with the patient. You’re standing right next to the patient through a roll-down window or an open door.”

與飯店或藥房等傳統的無人駕駛通行設施不同,在這種通行設施中,汽車排成一列,並通過一個窗口接單,而“汽車護理”概念類似於汽車賽車進站,一旦汽車駛入汽車,便會提供服務。 固定的。

霍林格說:“服務區(方法)的優點在於它是非線性的。” “因此,您可以進行並行處理,而不是直接驅動進行串行處理。”

“而且您將獲得更好的人機界面,因為您無需穿過建築窗戶即可與患者互動。您可以通過捲簾窗或敞開的門站在患者旁邊。”

The prefabricated bays would feature sliding screens for privacy and large monitors on wheels so that patients can see test results and health data.

Set at an angle to the service road to allow easier access, the diamond-shaped bays fit within the 60-foot (18-metre) grid of a standard parking lot. Each is 600 square feet (56 square metres) in volume.

However, the bays would be designed to reassure patients that they are entering a safe and friendly environment.

“The look and feel of that space is also extremely important to us,” Hullinger explained. “We want to make sure that people who are pulling into this space don’t have any confusion with pulling into anything that feels automotive or unclean.”

預製的隔間將配備用於保護隱私的滑動屏幕和帶輪的大型監視器,以便患者可以查看測試結果和健康數據。

菱形隔間與服務道路成一定角度以方便進入,菱形隔間可放入標準停車場60英尺(18米)的網格內。 每個容積為600平方英尺(56平方米)。

但是,這些隔間旨在確保患者進入安全和友好的環境。

霍林格解釋說:“這個空間的外觀和感覺對我們也非常重要。” “我們要確保進入這個領域的人們不會對進入汽車或不干淨的任何事物感到困惑。”

The units would have psychological benefits too since people feel safe in their cars, whereas entering a hospital can make people feel anxious.

The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a huge increase in the use of telehealth services, potentially leading to a long-term decline in visits to hospitals.

This in turn could free up space in hospital parking garages, making NBBJ’s drive-in bays a viable alternative for people who don’t have access to telehealth services or who prefer a physical meeting with caregivers.

Drive-in healthcare facilities could be set up anywhere they are needed, Hullinger said.

“We’re beginning to think about this idea of potentially putting them in underutilised malls in cities where you have arterial freeway access,” he said.

Broadcast live last week, Dezeen’s Wellbeing and Healthcare talk for Kohler also featured interior designer Tony Chi and Kohler’s vice president of industrial design Lun Cheak Tan.

Another proposal for rapid coronavirus vaccinations was unveiled by UK architect Waugh Thistleton earlier this year.

Their concept involves building thousands of mobile vaccination clinics in shipping containers, which they claim could be used to vaccinate the entire UK population in 16 weeks.

由於人們在車上感到安全,這些單位也將獲得心理上的好處,而進入醫院會使人們感到焦慮。

Covid-19大流行導致遠程醫療服務的使用大量增加,有可能導致長期去醫院就診的人數減少。

反過來,這又可以釋放醫院停車場中的空間,從而使NBBJ的駛入式貨架成為無法使用遠程醫療服務或偏愛與看護人見面的人們的可行選擇。

霍林格說,可以在任何需要的地方設置駛入式醫療設施。

他說:“我們開始考慮這個想法,可能將它們放置在您可以使用高速公路的城市中未被充分利用的購物中心中。”

上週現場直播的Dezeen在科勒的健康和醫療保健演講中,室內設計師Tony Chi和科勒的工業設計副總裁Lun Cheak Tan也有發言。

英國建築師沃·希特爾頓(Waugh Thistleton)於今年早些時候提出了另一項關於快速冠狀病毒疫苗的建議。

他們的想法涉及在運輸集裝箱中建立數千個移動疫苗接種診所,他們聲稱可以在16週內為整個英國人群接種疫苗。
