2. OUTLINE OF REPORT

ii) Type of user of health care premise.
iii) image of rural clinic to the citizen.
iv) Problems that public health care in Malaysia facing.
First
chapter: The existing rural clinics and the people voice
i) Site visit to
Malaysia rural clinics to observe the current conditions and have a
quick
interview with the user to
understand the needs and current user experience.
Site synthesis will be
produce to understand the
current problem.
ii) Survey form given to the public
iii) Summarize the interview and survey on the feedbacks
on the impact or human
experience of current public
health care on the user.
iv) Analysis of current public health care buildings and
design. Explanation with
using 5 senses of the dwellers experience.
The 5 senses as below:
- Haptic (touch)
- Views (sight)
- Thermal comfort
- Hearing
- Smell
Dweller will
experience the space with all their sensory. In the same time this
is one of
the things that will draw the
dweller interest on the space or make
the dwellers remember the place. For example when
we smell the taste
of medicine we will understand it is a health care place.
Second
chapter: Case study on the global health care center and local
building guidelines
for rural clinics

locally.
- give examples
and also analyze with 5 senses as mention about.
- Explain how
their design benefits the user by considering the local context?
ii) Current norms and guidelines from ministry of health
Malaysia. This guidelines
will affect the planning, design, equipment and the
operation of hospital directly.
Third
chapter: The basis criteria of the buildings and the ways to improve
Space, Light and ventilation is a basis criteria for a
building same as the rural clinics. Most of the rural clinic was built 40-50
years ago; some even was built before Malaysia independent day. Some basis
requirement of a space might change throughout the years. Therefore base on the
site observation and analysis some revitalize ideas on the basis requirement of
rural clinic will be proposed and explain as below:
i) Space (spatial planning)
~ Type of
space needed
~ Suitable size
for the space
~ Space
relation, configuration and orientation
ii) Lights
~ Openings to
allow sun shades
~ Shadow that
cast in may bring the place more lively and exciting.
~ Thermal
insulation design (To ensure artificial lights and natural light
do not affect
the indoor thermal control)
iii) Ventilation
~ Openings to
allow cross ventilation (cross air ventilation will help to
reduce the active
air ventilation, and also allow fresh air in order to
keep thermal comfort.
~ Active and
passive ventilation
~ Thermal
insulation
Explanation method
* Why and how of the ideas with beneficiary the users and
the building itself.
* How it is implement.
* The implementation will explain and analysis based on
the human 5 sensory.
Fourth
chapter: The additional design element to improve the space and
give identity
Additional design elements that needed to upgrade the
basic rural clinics.
i) Acoustic design (excellent acoustics plays key role in
ensuring the patient
can be completely at ease and ensure
of proper rest.)
- To increase
impact resistance design.
ii) Material used from floor to ceilings
- Why the
material is chosen and the beneficial to the space, user and
maintenance of
applying this material.
Explanation method
* Why and how of the ideas with beneficiary the users and
