The purpose of this paper is to present the social and psychological aspects of the impact of architecture of a hospital on all its users. The authors analyse the impact of factors shaping the architectural space of a hospital on the behaviour of patients and on the mutual relations between all the participants of the hospitalisation process. The hospital space has been presented from the point of view of the psychophysical needs of a patient, from the point of view of the medical staff and the visitors. The analysis includes the assessment of the quality of architectural space of a hospital as a place intended for the medical treatment, which is to facilitate the recovery of the patient and fast response of the staff in emergency situations.
