Case study: maximizing surgery center flow

The Okyanos Heart Institute in Freeport, Bahamas, was designed to accommodate clinical requirements and patient comfort


The Okyanos Heart Institute in Freeport, Bahamas, was designed to accommode clinical requirements and patient comfort. A case study on the Array Architects website discusses the design challenges of maximizing flow while providing a patient-focused experience. 

The Okyanos Heart Center is located on two floors of a commercial building. The space was designed to accommodate both clinical requirements as well as patient- and staff-flow best practices while creating a concierge-level surgery facility.
