| Description: | The basic principles of future hospital development,
reflected in the documents mentioned above, as
also in the Report of the Consultative Council on the
General Hospital Services (Fitzgerald Report) ·
published in 1968, are part of a world-wide move
towards the organisation of general hospital services on
a broader medical and technological base within the
hospital and an enlarged population catchment related
to the increased capability of the larger hospital. The
need for re-organisation on these lines has arisen
mainly because of changes in the practice of hospital
medicine including increasing emphasis on the
contribution of scientific investigation (e.g. laboratory
and x-ray), a beneficial tendency towards a greater
degree of specialisation by consultants and the
involvement of consultant "teams" in difficult
problems of complex disease and injury. |
