New surgical construction and high-tech operating rooms (ORs) can help recruit high-volume surgeons and maximize patient-centered care, according to an article on the Outpatient Surgery website.
The University of Minnesota Medical School and the Fairview Health Services health system partnered to open a $165 million building that houses surgeons' offices, 10 ORs, six procedure rooms, 15 private pre-op rooms and 22 recovery spaces.
The building has the modern feel of an Apple store.
The project is part of a growing movement to build facilities that offer a one-stop shop for all the care patients need before, during and after surgery.
