RCPs Future Hospital Commission, 11 September 2013
- A vision for hospital services structured around the needs of patients, now and future.
- The model of care proposed by the Future Hospital Commission is underpinned by the principle that hospitals must be designed around the needs of patients.
- "Future hospital: caring for medical patients focuses on the care of acutely ill medical patients, the organisation of medical services, and the role of physicians and doctors in training across the medical specialties in England and Wales. However, people’s needs are often complex, and hospital services must be organised to respond to all aspects of physical health (including multiple acute and chronic conditions), mental health and well-being, and social and support needs."
