PROGRAM

Large vs small, is one better than the other?

Healthcare doesn’t require a large footprint to meet the needs of a community. Care can be delivered on many scales but how much care can be delivered in a small space? How many small spaces are vacant that could be outfitted to fullfill the care needs of a given community?

Last year at PURPOSEFUL we explored how healthcare could be distributed to a community by reusing and repurposing unused existing buildings. This year at PURPOSEFUL we will building on our previous work by appling our design skills and healthcare knowledge to a collection of small spaces that could exist in any occupied building, and in the process bring needed care closer to the patient.

Providing care that is relevant to the community that it serves is necessary to fill the gaps that many can slip through. Without large plots of land or whole buildings available what is the size of a space that can facilitate care for many? Discovery and unique insights are sure to abound!
