We recommend, even for a small hospital, two electors. Just for the important reason of making elevator freely avaliable during crisis we also suggest one of the elevator to have a rear entrance to transport and shift patients to ambulance platform comfortably and to accomodate service cars demanding free access to service and utility areas, during other times.
For Hospital elevators we recommend a size of 1600 mm x 2400 mm to ensure easy movement of beds and equipments . The suggested speeds are 0.40 mts . per second for hospitals having two floors and 2.5 mts . per second for multi storied hospitals. Special cars are designed to cut off unwanted noise and door hangers are cushioned with rubber tyres to add slience to the operations.
