Several Dallas / Fort Worth healthcare projects demonstrate how facility design can help healthcare organizations strike the balance of delivering care both efficiently and well, according to an article on the D CEO Healthcare website.
Accountable care organizations, health insurance exchanges, Medicaid expansion, the patient-centered medical home and integrated delivery are all part of the latest healthcare market.
Empathetic facility designs address these issues along with patient and staff safety, the cost of care, facility adaptability, and speed to market, the article said.
For instance, the acute care hospital and multispecialty clinic being developed in Frisco by Texas Health Resources and UT Southwestern Medical Center is an integrated health campus that will give patients easy access to a network of services in one convenient location. The campus design will also facilitate collaboration between the area’s largest physician network and a major academic medical center.
