Grady Memorial Hospital Ambulatory Surgery Center Planning and Programming
Atlanta, GA
An intensifying demand for acute and outpatient surgeries and limited space are common issues in today’s healthcare environments. Our team engaged stakeholders through Lean workshops and developed proprietary tools, resulting in a new outpatient surgery center that improves care access and community health through a flexible design that maximizes space use and function.
Recognizing the opportunity of an integrated surgical center, the team also worked with Grady Health to create a single brand that aligned Grady Health, the Grady Health Emory Medical School and Morehouse School of Medicine. The team also helped transition Grady’s payor mix to attract a new payor type, developed a transition plan for the move to the new facility, and used modeling tools that enabled Grady to make the best facility decisions.
Features
NBBJ used a proprietary parametric modeling tool which provided real-time stacking options and cost modeling to help Grady Health decide how much space was needed for market and growth, while tracking dollars to space. This enabled the client to see how their business case plan aligned with their space strategy, and predict return on investment.
