Health Care Health Care For better or worse health care facilities are assembly lines. Check-in at reception, pull patients records, go to the waiting room or sick waiting area, proceed to the minimum 80 s.f. exam room or minimum 120 s.f. treatment room (provided at a ratio of 2 to 3 rooms per doctor), the medical assistant examines patient, the doctor examines patient, and then proceed to the check-out side of reception. It is the job of the architect to provide an easy to follow circulation path, a non-threatening, bright, comfortable décor, and the utility necessary for a health care facility.
