Abstract

Future hospitals must be able to adapt in many ways to the changing demands on their roles and functions within evolving healthcare delivery infrastructures. These include changing population structures and needs, new models of healthcare provision, technological advances, and innovations in design, all while enhancing their environmental sustainability. This article sets out the issues that those determining healthcare policy and designing future hospitals must consider if they are to become and remain fit for purpose within the wider health and social care system. It also examines the need for, and challenges to, strategic healthcare planning, creating future hospitals that are sustainable, net-zero carbon organisations, and ensuring resilience in the face of a range of potential shocks. Future hospitals play a crucial role in healthcare worldwide, regardless of the country's income level. Hospitals cannot be viewed without broader health system changes, infrastructure, community and cultural factors, staffing and other considerations. We anticipate that future hospitals will enhance population health in all settings and support the move towards more consumer-centric healthcare. We urge clinical and policy planners to consider the factors discussed carefully to maximise the benefits.

全球卫生系统中的未来医院：医疗保健系统中的未来医院。

未来的医院必须能够在许多方面适应不断发展的医疗保健服务基础设施对其角色和功能不断变化的需求。其中包括不断变化的人口结构和需求、医疗保健提供的新模式、技术进步和设计创新，所有这些都提高了环境的可持续性。本文列出了那些确定医疗保健政策和设计未来医院必须考虑的问题，如果他们要成为并保持适合更广泛的卫生和社会保健系统的目的。它还研究了战略医疗保健规划的需求和挑战，创建可持续的、净零碳组织的未来医院，并确保面对一系列潜在冲击的弹性。未来的医院在全球医疗保健中发挥着至关重要的作用，无论一个国家的收入水平如何。如果没有更广泛的卫生系统变革、基础设施、社区和文化因素、人员配备和其他考虑，就无法看待医院。我们预计，未来的医院将在所有环境中提高人口健康水平，并支持向更多以消费者为中心的医疗保健转变。我们敦促临床和政策规划者仔细考虑所讨论的因素，以最大限度地提高效益。

期刊介绍： Policy making and implementation, planning and management are widely recognized as central to effective health systems and services and to better health. Globalization, and the economic circumstances facing groups of countries worldwide, meanwhile present a great challenge for health planning and management. The aim of this quarterly journal is to offer a forum for publications which direct attention to major issues in health policy, planning and management. The intention is to maintain a balance between theory and practice, from a variety of disciplines, fields and perspectives. The Journal is explicitly international and multidisciplinary in scope and appeal: articles about policy, planning and management in countries at various stages of political, social, cultural and economic development are welcomed, as are those directed at the different levels (national, regional, local) of the health sector. Manuscripts are invited from a spectrum of different disciplines e.g., (the social sciences, management and medicine) as long as they advance our knowledge and understanding of the health sector. The Journal is therefore global, and eclectic.
