In this presentation, you will learn how two facilities addressed this challenge through creative adaptation and updating of underused and wasted space. This session will enable you to-
• State three cost-effective, creative planning techniques that were presented in this case studies in terms of their adaptability to other facilities.
• Develop a methodology using the criteria presented in the case studies to evaluate the ability of a facility to expand and modernize existing space using creative planning techniques.
• List the issues, as shown in the case studies, that a project team needs to address when beginning the design process for a health care facility project.
• Explain the importance of planning, as demonstrated by the case studies, to deliver a health care facility project in available space and on budget.
