A Model Hospital Designed for Comfort
Japanese Red Cross Ashikaga Hospital Located in Tochigi Prefecture, the facility is structured like a mall, with various functions arranged side by side. By keeping each function—including inpatient care, outpatient and central medical services, energy management, health checkups, and even the auditorium—separate, the facility can adapt to future societal needs and the growth and evolution of healthcare. While the rate of private rooms in typical hospitals is around 30%, all patient rooms in the general wards at our hospital are private.This not only ensures privacy but also resolves various issues associated with multi-bed rooms—such as the challenges of infection control, the need for different care environments based on the patient’s stage of recovery, noise and odors, and the need to move beds to accommodate gender-specific arrangements—thereby providing a more comfortable inpatient environment.
