A REVOLUTIONARY CONCEPT

In the ever-changing climate of Healthcare design and development, one aspect stands out as a true challenge to any Owner. How do you meet your census needs with ever increasing room size requirements and only a limited amount of space to expand? MMA was recently tasked with the challenge of designing a new 60 bed ICU in an existing space that conventionally could only support 40 beds.

EVIDENCE BASED DESIGN

MMA has set itself apart from all other design firms with it’s depth, breadth, and critique of evidence-based literature. As hospitals grow incrementally over time, healthcare needs, coupled with site limitations present new and unique challenges for every expansion. Many large hospital spaces are not designed or used as effectively as they could be effectively as they could be. This ineffective design leads to inefficient use of staff time and ultimately decline of patient care. MMA is skilled at designing technologically complex environments in antiquated space and configuring optimal solutions under difficult constraints. MMA’s designs put staff, operational, and economy of scale efficiencies first. This, in turn, leads to healthier and happier patients.
