PERSON - CENTERED DESIGN Kahn’s approach to the design of health care facilities is honest and heartfelt. It is shaped by the planners and designers who work on the project’s day in and day out and inspired by the people who heal, work, and visit within the walls we create. All health care facilities designed by Kahn embody the principles of evidence-based design and human-centered care. Kahn has been a part of many notable and revolutionary health care projects.

DESIGN MEETS DEPENDABILITY The health care delivery model has shifted significantly; methods and means are progressing rapidly, and consumers are quite savvy, determined to lead the decisions regarding when, where and how they receive treatment. Faster service, quicker results, more comfortable treatment spaces, and an array of complementary and holistic service options are expected for technology-integrated services.

FOCUSED ON YOU Kahn’s passion for the design of therapeutic healing environments is evident. Our design team skillfully balances neuroaesthetics, operations, economics and emotions, and processes and principles. Always mindful of current best practices, design for each facility takes into consideration: • Privacy • Staff Efficiency • Wayfinding • Signage

• Healing Environments • Healing Arts • Safety • Natural Delight

SUSTAINABLE AND HEALING ENVIRONMENTS Nature heals the heart and soul. Studies have shown a link between a patient’s physical environment and their ability to manage pain and heal. Therefore, the design of a healthcare environment should also incorporate healthy, sustainable features that reinforce a commitment to providing person-centered care.

Corktown Health

Hazel Park Clinic Hazel Park, Michigan Albert Kahn Associates collaborated closely with Corktown Health to design a welcoming and inclusive healthcare facility in Hazel Park. From the outset, the goal was to create an environment that embodies Corktown Health’s mission of respect and care for all individuals, regardless of their background or financial status. Through community engagement sessions during the schematic design phase, the team gathered feedback from stakeholders, ensuring the space would resonate with both Corktown Health’s mission and the needs of the surrounding community.

The expansion into Hazel Park prompted a detailed review of Corktown Health’s existing operations to improve efficiency in the new facility. Kahn’s design team held in-depth meetings with end users, medical practitioners, and project

22 A L B E R T K A H N | H E A LT H

stakeholders, analyzing patient flow, visit duration, support space needs, and public-private separation to streamline the patient experience. The resulting plan keeps patientcentered areas at the forefront, ensuring ease of navigation and minimal “back-tracking,” which enhances accessibility and comfort.

Working alongside Kahn’s Applied Research Specialist, the design team implemented best practices in healthcare design, emphasizing natural light, privacy, and materiality to create a healing environment. The Hazel Park facility not only serves as a model for adaptive reuse but also as a community health beacon, positioning Corktown Health to catalyze further development and improve the local streetscape.

Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein Israelite Hospital San Paulo, Brazil This facility was the first health care project in Brazil to achieve LEED Gold certification.

Departing from the standard Brazilian practice of incorporating outpatient services within a centralized hospital facility was essential to meeting their goals.
