NYU Langone Health Helen L. and Martin S. Kimmel Pavilion
Hospital visits are often stressful, so the Kimmel Pavilion, the largest expansion in the history of NYU Langone Health, is designed with the patient journey in mind. The Pavilion enhances wellness and patient satisfaction with a welcoming, personalized environment and an LEED Platinum design.
The design gives patients more control over their environment and promotes peace of mind. Features like a landscaped plaza separate the front door and lobby from the street, which allows patients to transition to a calm, welcoming setting.
In addition, extensive daylighting and transparent, intuitive navigation throughout creates restorative and streamlined spaces. Inpatient floors are designed for maximum efficiency and comfort for patients, families and staff—single-occupancy inpatient rooms increase privacy, reduce the risk of infection and improve staff workflow. To further the teaching mission of this academic medical center, staff lounges and huddle spaces are distributed throughout the floors so clinicians and students can discuss cases privately without disturbing patients.
Features
The Kimmel Pavilion is one of ten LEED platinum hospitals worldwide and the NYU Langone campus is the first in the world to receive the platinum certification from USGBC’s new PEER certification program.
