PEDIATRIC HEMATOLOGY CLINIC E5.0 - Final Presentation Erin Fleming INTD-4500 Spring 2020

The goal of my design is to create a space that would effectivley support the preventative treament methods of the Sick Kids Hematology division in treating children with chronic blood disorders.

This facility is organized around family centered design and puts family spaces at it's core, while clinical areas work around it. By bringing the services of a hematology clinic together in one facility, hematologists and families can unite as a team to effectively care for chronically ill children.

Hemophilia 20%

At SickKids, The focus of care is family-centerd, and the goal of the Heamatology and Oncology program is to provide timely, state-of-theart care to children with cancer and serious blood disorders as near to home as possible. A network of satellite centers across Ontartio provides selected aspects of care for this large population of children nearer to thier homes. Expert teams provide leasership with respect to diagnosis and recommendation of appropriate management plans. sickkids.ca/heamatologyOncology

The concept of the space is fluidity. My intent is to create a space that flows with the process of visiting a clinic. I focused my concept into the organization of the space from the moment of entry, through the waiting process to the scheduling of future appointments. Physically, I designed the space to to mimic the feel of waterflowing and natural movement, using soft edges and a neutral toned colour palette.
