Albert Schweitzer was a musician, theologian, medical doctor, and missionary. He established a hospital in Africa that looked like a typical African Village. The people who would have been afraid to come to a large imposing hospital felt free to come to his village. The patients and their families lived in familiar huts rather than on hospital beds. Of course, the surgery centers were modern and clean. Everything having to do with medical care was sanitary. Many doctors came for short stays.
In the African Luhya language, a hospital is known as "Isubutali".
