A new era of health care within the medical communities in the Southeastern United States has emerged. Gaining a competitive edge by attracting patients to non-hospital style organizations, by improving patient wellness with co-locating primary care, speciality groups, and physical therapy. Allowing both the patient and medical professionals to save money!
Coordinated quality care for patients, conveniently located, where they can build relationships with medical personnel.
Successful construction and renovations of medical communities needs to be designed with improved productivity, reducing waste, and energy consumption, to achieve optimum clinical outcomes.
The new medical community includes several stories of diverse outpatient clinics, partnership with private practices and physicians, diagnostic imaging, labs, pharmacy, surgery center, clinical waiting rooms, flexible seating, and reinforced with aesthetic quality.
“Maximizing the available floor area for the patient/provider encounter means shrinking the spaces that don’t generate revenue,” says J. Andrew Jarvis, AIA, LEED AP, Healthcare Practice Director in EwingCole’s New York City office. “To reduce waiting room size, for example, we are now using new technologies such as self-service check-in kiosks, patient-location tracking systems, exam room occupancy sensors, and just-in-time scheduling to reduce or eliminate the wait. These strategies not only save floor area but also improve patient satisfaction.”
Healthcare construction and renovations include several key elements for a strong modern approach, evidence based design, supportive core care functions and goals, sustainability, innovation, collaboration and value engineering.
