Description

In this paper we studied the floor planning and structure of the Nagasaki Yojosho through "Project voor een Ziekenhuis" by Pompe, "Notes on Hospitals" by Nightingale, "Handleiding tot be kennis der Burgerlijkeen Militaire Bouwkunst" by Storm and as compared with the constructed buildings and studied the activities of medical examination and education by Pompe and the hospital operation after opening of the hospital. Conclusions are as follows : 1) The scale of Yojosho on the first stage was as large as Nightingale's ward, but the constructed buildings were not so large. 2) The ward planning of Yojosho started with balcony type. This was very differrent from Nightingale's ward. "Handleiding" was close to the Yojosho type. 3) We assumed that the pitch of wards of Yojosho was about 10 Ken or 18m by perspective drawing. 4) We assumed that the divisions of ward for men and women were not considered at first, finally they had been constructed while using. 5) The operation of Yojosho had a lot of difficulty with Japanese social position system and our life style, but Pompe helped them to promote this operation. Yojosho had a very large infuluence upon the early western style hospitals affiliated with medical schools in Japan.
