Brookhaven Medical Office Building

The design team was tasked with providing services for two different specialties in Piedmont Health System: Pulmonology and Orthopedics. Pulmonology requires special attention to detail of patient flow and equipment requirements. It is imperative to provide short walks to exam rooms as the patients are often out of breath in short distances. In addition, LDDBlueline™ was challenged to create a 60 ft corridor for patient 3-minute walk tests that met the requirement yet did not appear as a never-ending corridor. For the Orthopedics portion of the project, LDDBlueline™ met the challenge of balancing patient flow and doctors’ workflow. The doctors’ work areas also needed to be in close proximity to the Xray Units and other centrally-located patient services.
