The frequent occurrence of earthquakes poses a severe challenge to the seismic performance of hospital buildings in earthquake-prone areas. As the core venue for earthquake relief, the structural safety of hospitals is crucial for rescue efficiency and life protection. This article focuses on optimizing the seismic resistance of hospital building structures, thoroughly analyzing existing issues. It systematically outlines key points for implementing optimization measures from aspects such as foundation selection, structural system construction, application of isolation and vibration reduction technologies, and structural reinforcement. The aim is to enhance the seismic capability of hospital buildings, ensuring smooth medical rescue operations during earthquakes.
