贝勒大学医学中心’s ED had been operating at or above capacity for nearly 10 years with negative impact to service, 医生推荐, 质量指标, 员工士气, 患者满意度. As part of our planning process for the ED renovation, 澳门足彩app completed a bed capacity analysis, which involved reviewing ED patients in progress by hour of the day. With 33 patient rooms, the ED averaged twice that number of patients during peak hours.
澳门足彩app’s operational analysis of BUMC’s workflow, 人员配备, and capacity ensured the design would reflect the emergency department’s specific patient and staff needs. 这项初步研究, supported by data-driven tools like process mapping, dynamic scenario planning and computer simulation modeling, assisted the space programming and operational planning for the new department. Streamlined operations support increased patient and staff satisfaction, reduced staff stress and patient wait times, and improved patient average length of stay.
澳门足彩app’s renovation and expansion to the 贝勒大学医学中心 Emergency Department tripled the size of the existing facility to house a major trauma department, 两个CTs, 三个x射线, 超声波, 以及实验室服务. The plan subdivides the large, long building footprint into functional zones and care team areas. Creating these operational units produced an ideal environment for providing optimum healthcare services while minimizing staff travel distances and providing flexibility in the operating size of the department.
支援区(医务室), nourishment rooms and staff work areas) are located in the central core of each care zone. Utilizing half-height glass walls to provide staff and patients with an open view of the department, the design gives staff comfort that their patients are well and reassures patients that staff members are available and within sight if a need arises. The design locates less intensive care and support areas one level above, close enough to the main ED to stay connected. Challenges presented by this project included 100% renovation within the existing envelope and maintaining existing operations during the multi-phased construction.
