DETAILED NEEDS AND REQUIREMENTS:
NURSING UNITS
521
INTRODUCTION
The following are detailed needs and requirements for nursing units
occurring in VA hospitals. This information is based on extensive
interviews with the VA personnel at field stations and in the Central Office,
considerable field observation and survey of relevant literature.
It is recommended that detailed needs and requirements be developed for
all other areas of the hospitals to ensure a comprehensive understanding
of the functioning of each unit by VA's A/E contractors as well as by all
components of the VA itself. Such a document if adequately prepared and
frequently updated would offer a significant benefit to the VA in obtaining
desired performance in their buildings.
