Bayalpata HospitalFacility

Bayalpata Hospital is a medical complex in Achham, Nepal, built from rammed earth by American architecture office Sharon Davis Design. Serving one of Nepal's poorest and most remote regions, Bayalpata Hospital replaced an old clinic that was too small for the number of patients needing treatment. The 70-bed hospital, a partnership between the government of Nepal and nonprofit Possible Health, serves an estimated 100,000 visitors a year, many of whom walk the single access road for as long as six days to receive care.
