Visit of the Kainuu Central Hospital in Finland

February 13, 2023 at 3:36 pm, No comments

We visited Kainuu Central Hospital in Finland, which has incorporated wood in the building interior. There we saw that wood products such as wood cladding, stairs, wall panels, doors and art elements are used in waiting areas, meeting rooms, patient rooms, restaurants and corridors. The rooms of high hygiene requirements did not have wood in them. More visual representation of the situation as well as the main takeaways are summarized in this presentation:
