Patients In Revolving Hospital Have Sunny Rooms All Day
SUNLIGHT exposure during the entire course of the day is provided patients in a revolving hospital ward at the Institute of Actinology in Vallauris-Le-Cannet, France. Patients afflicted with diseases requiring ample dosages of sunlight are treated at this hospital, declared to be the most up-to-date in France. As the sun rises in the morning, all rooms face the east, and then as the sun crosses the sky, the ward revolves on its axis to follow its course.
