dc.descriptionAppropriate design of the physical environment in hospitals contributes to improvements in patient well-being and satisfaction, delivery of medical care, staff satisfaction, and reduction in healthcare costs. Appropriate design is also a critical component in preventing healthcare-associated infections (HCAI), in particular through the provision of sufficient single-patient rooms, ample physical space in clinical areas, and an environment that can be readily cleaned and decontaminated. This document contains a series of recommendations for infection prevention and control-related planning and design considerations, for both new and existing acute hospitals. The recommendations were developed by a working group of SARI National Committee, and are based on best available evidence and international best practice.en_GB
