Space and time are the basic notions which provide basis for all modes of thoughts and beliefs. Spatial dimension of health care encompasses this relationship while addressing the questions of what, where, why, and why there? These concerns became significant especially when the scarcity of resources present a critical situation and access of these resources poses a challenge.
