Critical care patient treatment hours have increased dramatically in U.S. emergency departments over the past decade, with numbers projected to escalate at alarming rates in the future.

This webinar will highlight the University of Michigan Medical Center’s journey to address this growing challenge through lean design. The session will discuss how the hospital and emergency department leadership’s plan to create a dedicated critical care unit would improve care delivery and patient outcomes. Using lean design principles throughout the building design and construction process, the team created a finished project that was completed ahead of schedule, under budget, and with no significant change orders.

By engaging in purpose-driven design dedicated to functional space that emphasizes efficient, effective, and cutting-edge critical care, the project set a national precedent for providing emergency department-based treatment. Five-year post-occupancy analysis validates the standard by which future peer institution unit designs will be based. 

 

Learning Objectives

  • Define the pain points and gaps in emergency critical care delivery.
  • Create a “right time, right place, right care” emergency department model.
  • Apply lean facility design to solve the problem.
  • Implement and execute a post-occupancy analysis to measure how the resulting design stood up to challenges, workflow, and care delivery.

Many attendees of The Center for Health Design’s webinars have inquired about IDCEC approval so they can earn ASID, IIDA, and IDS CEU’s. We have looked into this and unfortunately, the cost to upload courses to IDCEC is simply too high at this time. You can still earn credit for attending our webinars by requesting a verification certificate. As of July 9, 2020, The Center for Health Design requires a CEU management fee for verification certificates for all webinars and EBD Journal Clubs. Please contact Natalie Gonzalez, Project Manager, ngonzalez@healthdesign.org.
