This High-Rise MedMod hospital prototype is envisioned as a tower in a high-density urban setting. This MedMod hospital will be constructed with a central service core and a concrete structure, capable of housing MedMod units. This hospital is organized into specialty zones of ten to fifteen floors each, interrupted by intermediate planted roofs. Many building services would be constructed in an adjacent low-rise structure to house functions such as emergency services and user hospitality services. This prototype is best suited for rapidly developing urban centers with minimal healthcare infrastructure.
