JAUE2012-077: Space medical needs Study of the Children's Hospital waiting space

Abstract

Post -Occupancy evaluation seeks to enable subsequent type output high efficiency service use; output costs of hospital type structures not Fibonacci, the construction time is long and difficult to change, particularly in the children's hospital building for medical objects are more scarce, thus establishing efficient space use is important. This study to use evaluation (POE), behavioral science as a theoretical basis: evaluation (POE) for children's hospital waiting room size and design of defaults, depending on the user's views and behavior study exploring the effectiveness and preference than to explore space usage efficiency problems. Intuitive POE sort of factor analysis in the early research table, and then by category into four dimensions group structure of the questionnaire for research base; ask site users to parents, experienced parents, hospital administration or nursing staff in general questionnaire survey, inspection of waiting space do to design the relationship between behavior and spatial reference. Research literature and intuitive method to POE is a leading, coupled with the actual draw and record children and parents to track and model, hospitals in both the number of spatial arrangement on diagnosis, preliminary study on the population capacity. POE observation of factors in turn be divided into dimensions after conducting a questionnaire survey.
