Abstract
Large hospitals such as medical centers provide not only medical services, but also carry the responsibilities for medical research and education. Besides serving the basic operating functions, the large hospital buildings also have to support the medical services in hospitals and satisfy the patient’s needs of health. In order to keep normal and smooth operations of hospitals, the hospital building's maintenance must be taken seriously. The facility managers must realize the problems will be faced in the maintenance of hospital buildings. However, there are few researches studied the large hospitals in Taiwan and focused on the properties of maintenance in the building’s operational phase.
This paper used a case study of the East and the West buildings of the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) and attempted to establish a facilities management cost database of large hospitals in Taiwan. The data used in this research were obtained from NTUH on the facilities management costs of 16,920 maintenance cases. This paper analyzed these data to obtain the physical characteristics of large hospital buildings, and reveals the key items of facilities management for large hospitals, so the facility manager of hospitals can execute maintenance policy with statistic reference.
