PRoF 5.0 : Hospital or hotel room?


The PRoF consortium proudly presents the “Flexible Patient Room of the Future” or PRoF 5.0.


This is a design of two hospital rooms where all the latest gadgets and technologies are incorporated. The rooms are connected to each other when both residents agree to this.

"We built two standard single rooms, one of which is dedicated to the patient and equipped with the latest technology. The other room is a guest room which, if necessary, can be quickly converted into a patient room. We transformed consciously existing wards into guest rooms in order to give the family and friends a perfect hotel feeling. Although the patient is physically isolated, there is still contact possible with the patient.

This particular conversion is an economical solution for the hospital and offers at the same time a solution to loneliness for the patient. Both rooms include the latest technology for heating or cooling, a unique sensor system in the floor to prevent falling and control options for both the patient and the visitor ", informs the ProF consortium.
