The article examines the features of the formation of open recreational spaces (ORS) for children's hospitals (CHs) in Kharkiv. Based on the analysis of regulatory documents, it was found that in Ukraine CHs are divided into multi-profile and single-profile, as well as specialized institutions. Multi-profile institutions provide a wide range of medical services for children with various diseases, for example, regional and city children's hospitals, while single-profile institutions focus on the treatment of specific diseases, such as infectious or oncological. Specialized centers (rehabilitation, cardiology, etc.) are also distinguished that require special areas for rest and rehabilitation.
The analysis of CHs in Kharkiv showed that most institutions have imperfectly organized territories, often unsuitable for full-fledged use. Many hospitals are parts of medical complexes or are located in dense urban development, which limits the space for ORS. The main shortcomings are insufficient landscaping, lack of necessary areas for children with various types of diseases, lack of special areas for rehabilitation and limited access for children with disabilities.
Based on the analysis of the typology and needs of different hospitals, general recommendations for the Kharkov CHs were developed. For multi-profile hospitals, it is recommended to create multifunctional areas that will allow for physical rehabilitation, educational activities and relaxation, etc. (multimodal spaces, safe play, sports, recreational, etc.)
For single-profile hospitals, it is worth providing highly specialized areas that will meet specific needs: sensory spaces for ophthalmology and otolaryngology hospitals, sports grounds with adaptive equipment for physiotherapy and traumatology hospitals.
Thus, the article justifies the need to create ORSs in CHs that take into account the needs of different categories of patients. The proposed solutions are aimed at reducing stress, stimulating physical activity, and ensuring psycho-emotional comfort, which ultimately contributes to the accelerated recovery of children and the improvement of working conditions for medical personnel.
