The decade-long renovation and expansion of Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford (Calif.) has been completed and patients have been moved into in the new facility, according to an article on the Fierce Healthcare website.
The redesign aimed to create a facility with patients — and caregivers — in mind. The hospital has gardens for patients and families alongside balconies and quiet spaces for clinical workers.
Lucile Packard has also expanded and modernized its imaging and treatment centers.
New suites were designed to streamline the treatment process for some procedures with adjoining spaces for different steps.
