Emergency Room of the Future

This project shows how the emergency rooms could look if the system could be changed in order that most of the patients didn’t have to wait long to be attended by the hospital, with help of new technology and a whole new architectural design.

Problem Statement

Emergency Rooms: How long will I wait this time?

In July 2019, the Federal Ministry of Health presented a concept for reforming emergency rooms, in order to give a faster and more efficient service for those patients who by circumstances need to use emergency rooms but are not in a life-threateaning situation.

Those patients need also better and faster attention, because, they might not be in life-threateaning situations, but must of the times they are very uncomfortable, because of possible injuries or pain that they might have.
