Commissioning Priorities: Do we need 40 New Hospitals? Debate & Q&A

Posted by Jaime Bishop

Few healthcare architects agree we need 40 new hospitals, that’s not to say that we don’t have 40 or more that need replacing, it’s more that what we do need probably doesn’t look quite like a hospital as we know it.

As GPs at scale, in the form of PCNs, grow into the role and in 2022 as we finally say goodbye to the 40 year experiment with the buyer – suppliers relationship which started under the Thatcher government, and taking advantage of the One Public Estate initiative, it’s the right time to get Health strategists, Clinicians and Architects and Urban Planners in one room (virtually) to discuss how we and what we should do next.

AfH will host a forum in June and would like to hear particularly from Clinicians and Healthcare strategists to discuss taking part.
