Paint
Although paint is an effective way into using detail for mural work there are limitations within what it can do and how it is applied.
Paint allows detail however in this instance the work will be simple in its style so this won't be needed.
If the considered design is meant to be used widely across hospitals there would be a difficulty in achieving the same colours without specified requirements or already existing simple colours.

Stencil (Spraypainting)
The issue with this is that there is a limit to what can be created.
Vinyl
This medium is very low in cost which is important to consider in the amount that would need to be printed, it's easy to apply and remove, the designs can adapt to an environment as they are able to be moved, unlike paint or spray paint.
It can also be quickly applied which might be necessary when in a busy environment like a hospital.

Vinyl can also be printed in size, there is a limit in the size in how the work can be applied which could be an issue as paint can be unlimited in its scale as well as spray paint, however, vinyl is much more efficient.
Vinyl seems to be the most valid way of applying the chosen designs within meeting the created criteria for this brief.
