Description
The architectural solution and smart planning of a hospital undoubtedly play a very important role in saving patients’ lives and ensuring that their treatment is a success. As such, Viljandi Hospital has launched a competition to find the best team to face the many and varied challenges – some of them rarely encountered – in creating our new complex.
Planned to open in Estonia’s capital of culture in 2023, the new building of Viljandi Hospital and Health Centre is far from being just another new hospital. It is much more than that. There may not be many of us here in Viljandi County – just 50,000 at last count – and even though we are 160 km from the Estonian capital Tallinn and 210 km from the Latvian capital Rīga, we are making health care history. You now have the opportunity to be part of that.
At the same time as the hospital and health centre is being designed, the health and social system for our entire county will be restructured. But it is bigger even than that: a truly unique project, the first of its kind, in Estonia as a whole, and probably anywhere in the Baltic region. Its aim is to bring all of the links in the very long chain of treatment and social services together symbiotically under one roof and to get them working, promptly and flexibly, as one team to save people’s lives. We want to take the management and quality of medical services to a new level. We will not settle for anything less. Working with the best architects, we want to transform Viljandi Hospital – which was founded in the mid-19th century – into a complex that acts as a signpost of innovation in the social sphere and field of health care for the development of the hospital network throughout the surrounding region. Following the success of our hospital, the plan is to build centres with similar concepts in other Estonian cities, and perhaps even beyond.
