The Design Solution
TMP’s design increased the total room capacity and maximized private exam rooms to reduce wait times and upgrade the patient experience.
The reimagined layout features a racetrack design with nurse stations centrally located on either end of the department. The parking lot, which was originally designed for patient use, was transformed into a valet lot, allowing them to drop off cars at the walk-in canopy.
TMP worked closely with our general contractor partner to simplify the redesign process, saving construction time by eliminating a construction phase while simultaneously preventing work from stopping during construction.
