This new two-story facility relocates patient rehabilitation functions from an acute care setting to that of an Office Building. In this case, Physical Medicine, Physical Therapy and other rehab services are combined with nutrition planning and a community accessible fitness club. Exam rooms and telemetry are provided to evaluate and monitor patient progress. The result is a full-service gym that blends the needs of recovering patients in a positive and energized environment. Patient areas are segregated from community spaces to respect confidentiality and dignity and are organized to provide clear circulation and line-of-site from the nurse station to patients. The open design features natural daylight in all areas with extensive use of skylights and glazed partitions.
