How to create a modern medical center in the current conditions?

A modern multidisciplinary clinic is not only a medical facility, but also an engineering and often biotechnical facility. The technological complexity of the object depends on the planned (bio) medical profiles and functionality, the need for scalability and upgradability, as well as many other factors. When viewed from the outside, the creation, from an idea to commissioning, of a modern specialized or multidisciplinary medical center does not look prohibitively complicated, and its stages (pre-project surveys, medical and technical specifications, draft design, design stages, construction, equipping, and entering the planned production power) are seen as understandable and achievable. However, our own experience of direct participation and analysis of the implementation of various specialized medical centers in our country indicates the presence of a lot of false prejudices, mistakes, outdated principles, and other problems in practice. In the article, we analyze, explain, and systematize typical misconceptions and vices when creating an oncology center, but the same problems arise when creating any multidisciplinary medical center. We believe that our experience will be useful for familiarization not only to designers, technologists and architects, but also to doctors, healthcare organizers, as well as to all specialists involved in the creation of modern medical centers.
