Planning Module Applications: Design Configurations
1. Tower separate from a base
Nursing functions are generally separate from the support functions.
There is a relative independence of choice of planning modules and
assembly patterns between the tower and the support area, although
the floor-to-floor heights in the lower bed care floors must be equal to
those in the support area to provide horizontal continuity.
2. Tower on a base
The tower on a base needs a maximum of coordination between bed
care and support areas since the organization of the tower service
module pattern fundamentally affects the organization of the service
modules in the base.
