Abstrakt: The establishment of the American Medical Association in 1847 launched medical practice standardization in the United States. Consensus on standards was hard won, however, and implementation was not immediate. Hospital design standards, specifically, were debated for decades and were ultimately ceded to nurses and architects. This article describes key moments along that trajectory.
