Abstract

The main aim of establishing cure premises is healing and recovery of illnesses and getting rid of pains. If the patient got infected with diseases or exposed to dangers inside the hospital, this is considered a demolition of the main aim of establishing this hospital because the hospital should be designed so that it can achieve the criteria of safety for patients, so we must keep a safe environment free from the dangers of patients' falling to the ground.
The main aim of the research is to identify the principles and design criteria which help reducing the risk of falling patients inside the accommodation rooms. This can be achieved by studying number of requirements that should be considered when designing such as the factors concerning organization, spatial and unit accommodation planning for bathroom inside the room, Determine the internal characteristics of the environment such as lighting and finishes that determines the noise level.
To achieve the goal the research deals with requirements of planning and design for these rooms to reduce the dangers of falling patients. This is done through a theoretical and analytical study that come to conclusions and provides recommendations on the design of patient rooms in hospitals.
