Emergency and critical care areas in hospitals are high-pressure zones where every second counts. According to Vastu Shastra, proper layout and orientation can enhance efficiency, reduce stress, and support staff focus.
Entry & Access: Main access points should allow smooth movement for staff, patients, and equipment. North or East-facing entrances are ideal for positive energy flow.
Bed & Equipment Placement: Patient beds and critical equipment should avoid direct alignment with doors. This minimises energy disruption and helps maintain calm.
Staff Movement & Workstations: Nursing stations and control rooms should be placed in directions that allow visibility without obstructing workflow, balancing energy and functionality.
Lighting & Ventilation: Proper natural light and air circulation are crucial for maintaining alertness and reducing tension in high-stress areas.
Integrating Vastu in these zones doesn’t just enhance aesthetics, it creates a harmonious environment where patients, families, and staff can function at their best, even under pressure.
