The hospital is on West Grand Boulevard in Detroit and the plot embraces twenty acres, so that there will be ample room for expansion. It is our thought to extend the facilities as they justify themselves. The original design of the hospital has been quite abandoned and we have endeavoured to work out a new kind of hospital, both in design and management. There are plenty of hospitals for the rich. There are plenty of hospitals for the poor. There are no hospitals for those who can afford to pay only a moderate amount and yet desire to pay without a feeling that they are recipients of charity. It has been taken for granted that a hospital cannot both serve and be self-supporting--that it has to be either an institution kept going by private contributions or pass into the class of private sanitariums managed for profit. This hospital is designed to be self-supporting--to give a maximum of service at a minimum of cost and without the slightest colouring of charity.

白话
医院位于底特律西大道,占地二十英亩,有充足扩展空间。我们想按需扩展设施。最初的设计已完全放弃,我们努力在设计和管理上打造一种新医院。为富人的医院很多,为穷人的医院也很多,却没有为那些只付得起适中费用、又不想感觉受慈善施舍的人准备的医院。人们想当然认为医院不能既服务又自负盈亏——要么靠私人捐款维持,要么变成营利性疗养院。这家医院设计成自负盈亏,以最低成本提供最大服务,不带丝毫慈善色彩。
上下文
福特在书中介绍他创办的医院,旨在服务中等收入者且不靠施舍。
今日一问
你能否设计一个既服务他人又能自我维持的项目,而不依赖捐赠?
