Why Hospital Planning & Design Matters in Pakistan 🏥

Healthcare infrastructure is the backbone of a nation’s progress. In Pakistan, where the population exceeds 240 million (Source: Pakistan Bureau of Statistics), the demand for modern, well-equipped hospitals is growing rapidly.

Key reasons why hospital planning & design experts are essential:

• ✅ Rising healthcare demand due to population growth

• ✅ Need for advanced ICU, OT, and ER designs aligned with WHO standards

• ✅ Government focus on healthcare development (Source: Ministry of National Health Services)

• ✅ Growing awareness among private investors to build state-of-the-art hospitals

Poorly designed hospitals not only compromise patient safety but also affect operational efficiency. That’s why professional hospital planners like ACCO are vital in ensuring that projects meet both medical and architectural excellence.
