Description
This session examines the community and environmental effects of medical center development. Practical methods and strategies will be presented that can be applied to any hospital planning and design project, with particular focus on comparing different site and governance challenges as well as ways specific strategies for public agency and community involvement can lead to successful outcomes. This session will enable you to-
• Discuss methods, based on case studies presented, that a project team can use to solicit input from end users and the community to ensure a hospital project responds to the community's shared sense of place.
• List three strategies based on information presented for keeping key community amenities, such as neighborhood and public space connections, from disappearing from the budget during the value engineering or value analysis process.
• Describe three approaches design teams can take, based on the examples provided, to maintain a community connection in facility planning and design.
• List evaluation techniques, based on examples given, that can be used to assess the impact a health care facility project can have on the surrounding community.

LEARNER OUTCOMES:
  • Create a mixed-use plan that combines amenities for the community and research opportunities for the medical center
  • Identify all options for expansion including non-contiguous parcels; demolition of existing structures; linking separate locations
  • Look at challenges of way-finding beyond signage. Identify the pros and cons of a single strong entrance versus multiple access points
  • Understand the elements of design that can divide or further uplift a commuity
