A Lean Approach to a 24-bed Med-Surg Unit
Extensive collaboration and Lean practices kept this occupied renovation ahead of schedule while minimizing disruption to ongoing hospital operations. This 20,000 SF renovation to Newton-Wellesley Hospital’s East Wing’s 5th floor transformed the space into a high-tech med-surg unit. The 24 new patient rooms feature Bluetooth technology, Smart Glass partitions for patient privacy, and state-of-the-art headwalls. In the heart of the unit is a new nurse call station; surrounded by patient beds, exam rooms, two isolated rooms, and two negative pressure rooms for highly contagious patients. Today, the 5 East Wing offers patients an elevated experience in a transformed and comforting environment.
