Synopsis

This book thoroughly examines the necessary spatial requirements and other considerations when constructing workhouse infirmaries, with a particular emphasis on ventilation. The author, a recognized expert in the field, provides a comprehensive analysis of existing sick wards in metropolitan workhouses and infirmaries. The author also offers recommendations for improvements, including increasing the minimum space allotted to each patient, providing separate wards for offensive cases, and ensuring an adequate supply of trained nurses. The author argues that these measures are essential for maintaining the health and well-being of the sick and infirm, and for preventing the spread of disease.
