ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIOR DESIGN Design matters. Patients get clues about the quality of their medical care from the feel and experience of their surroundings. We design places that create transformative experiences for patients, families, and care-givers. We incorporate evidence-based design principles in all of our projects to ensure that our designs also support improved health outcomes. ENGINEERING AND BUILDING SYSTEMS More than half of a new building’s cost of construction is related to its building systems. HVAC, plumbing, electrical and information/ communication systems must provide the infrastructure for operations on opening day and well into the future of a healthcare building. Life cycle operational costs are a significant expenditure once the building opens. Our designs address stewardship of resources on all levels: we provide effective and sustainable solutions that balance capital expenditures with operational costs over the life of a building. SUSTAINABILITY Health in the patient environment extends to the world outside its walls. This means minimizing energy use, conserving water resources, and considering sustainability relative to materials choices, construction processes, and operational effectiveness. Strategies we employ to achieve these goals include performance-based design with identified targets and tracking tools, as well as the implementation of multi-tasking building systems.
RESEARCH We are innovative thinkers and invest significantly in research every year. Exploration of new ideas through design is embedded in our DNA and demonstrated by investment in ideas such as the Green Patient Lab/ Patient Room, Net Zero Lab Exemplar, and Ambulatory Practice of the Future. These ideas find life in our projects, evidenced by two of North America’s largest net-zero energy facilities completed in the last few years. TECHNOLOGY Every day, technology is transforming the way we live, work and conduct business. Records, interactions, visualizations, communications, controls, and security in the healthcare environment continue their migration to digital platforms and to connectivity throughout the enterprise. It’s crucial to guide our clients through the assessment and planning of short-term strategies, as well as visioning for the future with multi-phase implementation strategies linked to financial models for achievement.

1,013 articles on evidencebased design linking family and staff to health outcomes.
We design for people PATIENTS AND FAMILIES Family and friends are a critical support to patients and valuable members of the care team. Our healthcare environments enhance the comfort of visitors., by promoting positive interaction with the patient and consultation with the staff to support improved health outcomes. CAREGIVERS Healthcare environments are work settings for physicians, nurses and all staff who provide services for patient care. For staff to do their jobs well, individually and in collaborative settings, and to thrive as caregivers, their work areas must be designed for effectiveness, efficiency, and well-being. Natural light, views, and spaces for respite allow staff to be reinvigorated. Design and the experience it creates can help support peak performance and satisfaction in a high-stress workplace. COMMUNITY The ecosystem of health and wellness extends to the greater community. Places for prevention, wellness, and care are a part of the community fabric and must be designed to welcome engagement. Lifestyle, technology, and awareness come together to create the opportunity for health management and health care in many settings beyond the hospital, including retail settings, performance spaces, farmers’ markets, running and bike paths, and community wellness centers. Personal responsibility for health and access to information and care at the most convenient and appropriate levels results in an engaged and informed community.

Essential strategies for maximizing your resources LEAN PROCESS IMPROVEMENT DESIGN Doing more with less. Getting rid of waste and optimizing resources. Providing better quality care because outdated and time-consuming procedures have been eliminated. These are the promises of a lean-designed facility. Engaging in 3P events to map workflow processes and using mockups at various scales, we work with you and your multidisciplinary teams to design facilities that match your preferred approach to a lean operational organization.
PROGRAM AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT Projects can be full of surprises. Escalating costs, schedule delays, claims, or worse can damage your organization, not to mention the communities you serve. We know from experience that delivering a complex project without surprises doesn’t mean there won’t be challenges, but our creative strategies can head off most problems and provide early warnings on the rest, meaning you can manage with confidence.
ALTERNATIVE PROJECT DELIVERY (P3/PFI/IPD) Healthcare is a risky business. In expanding, renovating, or building new spaces, speed and cost control are essential. We have successfully deployed a variety of strategies for project delivery: P3/PFI public-private partnerships, CM at risk, design-build, and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD). The bottom line is an approach to collaboration and shared risk that motivates the collective team to outperform.
OPERATIONAL READINESS You need to be ready when your new space is ready. Our operational readiness planning professionals help you plan and implement all the operational activities required to successfully provide programs and services in your new facility. We prepare your professionals with operational processes that allow them to conduct business seamlessly in your new environment.
FLEXIBILITY AND ADAPTABILITY One thing is certain—change. To respond, we anticipate the future and employ design strategies that allow space to change easily and gracefully over time. We use standard room sizes for multiple uses; interventional platforms for diagnostic and treatment spaces; discrete paths for the public, staff, patients, and materials; structural bay sizes that accommodate multiple functions; and strategic placement of fixed elements. Along with these strategies, we recognize that change management is needed for cultures in transition.
Expert Spotlight From the beginning, it was the impact on people’s lives that drew us to design for health.

UCSF Medical Center at Mission Bay SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, USA UCSF’s Third Campus: Designed for healthcare research, treatment and innovation. San Francisco prides itself on being a leader in many social and technological issues including caring for the health of its citizens, being a center for research and innovation, and spearheading efforts to be the greenest city in the US. An existing UCSF Mission Bay life sciences research campus made the addition of a new medical center nearby an ideal ground for translational medicine. It provides space for UCSF’s highly-regarded Cancer, Children’s and Women’s programs. The design puzzle was to balance identity with the cost efficiency of shared services in construction, operational, and staffing costs. In the 878,000 square foot structure, each center of excellence is separate, but shares a platform of support services and diagnostic treatment spaces arranged along a main spine. A kaleidoscope of color of dichroic glass enlivens the building’s surface and entry to the Benioff Children’s Hospital. The women’s center and cancer center have separate entrances. Sky lobbies allow families outdoor access on patient floors, while over six acres of gardens on terraces, some accessible to patients, make it a hospitable place connected to the natural environment at every opportunity.

Intermountain Medical Center MURRAY, UTAH, USA The 486-bed flagship medical center for the IHC system consolidates services formerly dispersed among four medical centers in the IHC urban central region on a new 110-acre brownfield site. The organizational concept for the 1.2 million-square-foot project creates five institute centers of excellence. The Women and Newborns, Tertiary Trauma, Heart & Lung, Ambulatory Care, and Oncology Centers of Excellence will anchor the campus with physician office space dispersed throughout. Views to the Wasatch and Oquirrh mountain ranges can be seen from each patient room and staff area. The design parti is oriented to have an “entry side” and a “view side” that maximizes views to the mountains. A concern for privacy, dignity, and connection to family is infused throughout the design concept. For example, waiting rooms are decentralized and located close to where the patients are treated. There are a number of private family waiting rooms, or waiting alcoves, that allow for private discussions amongst family members and caregivers. All rooms are single occupancy. Some of the private rooms can be enlarged by “pass through” doors that, when opened, link two rooms to create a family or VIP suite. Services: Master Planning, Architecture, MEP Engineering
Nanaimo Regional General Hospital Emergency Department and Psychiatric Emergency Services NANAIMO, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA The expert team of staff, nurses and physicians of the Nanaimo Emergency Department needed a new space to service the growing community. Their expertise, accompanied by a welcoming attitude, was the guiding principle of the design. It starts with a timber canopy that makes it easy to find the entrance and recalls the beautifully wooded surroundings of Vancouver Island. The lobby and reception area are open and airy, with high ceilings. Filled with regional artwork, it’s also highly-functional, with reception structured so patients are easily triaged. The waiting areas and the treatment pods are all organized around individual courtyards, open to the sky so the patient, while waiting or being treated, is connected to natural light and interior gardens. This relieves stress for both the patients and caregivers while getting the extra benefit of reduced lighting costs. A separate mental health unit includes four secure bedrooms, treatment rooms and pleasant courtyards, living spaces and recreation areas to help speed rehabilitation.

The new integrated facility brings together the First Nations and non-native population into one facility which blends traditional and modern approaches to spiritual, cultural and healing practices. In addition to the residents of Sioux Lookout, the new hospital also serves the residents of 29 remote northern communities. The program includes a mental health and addiction centre; withdrawal management unit; dedicated palliative care area; expanded chronic kidney disease program; screening and diagnostic mammography. The site was selected with input from the local elders who recognized its healing qualities. A key aspect of the master plan was the articulation of this healing circle, clearly visible to patients and their families as they fly in from remote communities, ‘marking the earth’ as a powerful symbol.
The project incorporates LEED design principles for certification, and using Building Information Modeling (BIM) from initial conception through the completion of construction documentation. Hazardous building material assessment, specifically asbestos and lead-based paint, were required as part of the pre-design tasks for this project. Over 300 samples were collected over the span of four days culminating in a final hazardous building materials report that will be incorporated into the facility design as well as demolition activities once the construction phase of the project commences.

The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Passavant—Pavilion
Cleveland State University - Center for Innovation in Medical Professions
PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA, USA
CLEVELAND, OHIO, USA
The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Passavant needed to expand to accommodate growth in the region and to provide a new oncology center as a Center of Excellence. This new addition supports caregivers’ abiity to provide comfort and treatment technologies for patients. Through its design, it communicates to the community a holistic and renewed image of modern healthcare.
This new medical research and education center supports a program that changes the way practitioners in various health-care fields work together.
For staff, physicians, and administrators, we designed efficient workspaces and logical layouts that enhance clinical workflow as well as spaces with access to sunlight and views that reduce stress and foster relaxation. For families, we designed amenity-rich family lounges, areas in the patient room so families can visit or stay overnight, and small “respite areas” to confer with staff or interact with extended family. Patient floors are arranged to allow in as much natural light as possible with large windows that bring daylight into the corridors, lounges, and patient rooms. Cancer patients who must come to the hospital for multiple infusion treatments need privacy, dignity, and choice. The oncology center is located in the lowest level of the building where we exposed the perimeter of the basement floor to provide daylight into the treatment areas. Services: Planning, Architecture

Newham University Hospital, Gateway Surgical Centre LONDON, ENGLAND, UK The Gateway Surgical Centre is one of the first of a planned series of new state of the art facilities. On the same site as Newham General Hospital, it enables the Trust to separate its acute and elective surgical activities and provide an improved, fully scheduled service for patients. As a pioneering model, the design makes a strong statement about new and future developments. Due to its prominent location it has been designed as a local landmark; a civic and public presence within the community. Newham General Hospital completed in 1985 is a low-rise development and has left little land available for further development. The new building located at the far end of the site, has been designed as a compact four-storey building to minimise landtake and to take full advantage of its position and the views. The architectural diagram for the building is of two bars that slide past each other. The lower bar contains outpatient activity on the entrance level with inpatient accommodation above. The upper bar provides another floor of inpatient accommodation, theatre suites and daycase unit. The shift between the two bars creates a significant overhang to from a covered entrance courtyard and focal space. Services: Architecture
Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital
The Charleston Cancer Center
NORWICH, ENGLAND, UK
CHARLESTON, WEST VIRGINIA, USA
The 103,000 sq m Norfolk Norwich University Hospital opened in 2003, was designated Best Designed Hospital by the NHS 2002 and was nominated for the Prime Minister’s Better Public Building Award.
Charleston Area Medical Center (CAMC)’s new Cancer Center delivers on a community promise to consolidate all cancer diagnosis and treatment services in one location. The threestory building houses crucial services such radiation and medical oncology, oncology surgery, clinical trials, medical office space, and the CAMC Breast Center.
It was developed according to the ‘Matrix Pattern of Organisation’ devised by Stantec, which disaggregates the facility into a series of adaptable and sustainable elements, each well suited to a given range of functions. The hospital is zoned in three parallel bands. The central band contains all heavily-serviced diagnostic and treatment facilities, thus enabling the alignment of these services with related inpatient accommodation and minimising patient travel. Outpatient and ambulatory care functions are located in highly-flexible, light and airy pavilions in the northerly band - also conveniently adjacent to related diagnostic and treatment services. The hospital was initially briefed for 750 beds, grew to 850 beds late in the design stage and to 950 beds during the construction period. The master plan gracefully accommodated this expansion and now provides for further growth and change in an orderly fashion. Services: Planning, Architecture, Interior Design
A focus on comfort carries through to all elements of patient care including four ultrasound procedure rooms, 22 exam rooms and 32 infusion bays arranged in pods. The pods allow patients the flexibility to choose a private or shared space, depending on the level of interaction they desire. The third floor CAMC Breast Center welcomes patients to experience the full spectrum of care, from routine mammograms to advanced cancer treatments. A host of amenities reinforce the atmosphere of care and convenience, including a patient concierge, a boutique, cafe, and retail pharmacy. A two-story rotunda off of the main entrance provides a soothing space to relax before a fireplace, enjoy local art work, or listen to classical music on a player piano. Just off the rotunda, an outdoor healing garden offers a tranquil spot to reflect and recharge. Services: Architecture, Interior Design, MEP Engineering, Planning, Facilities Planning & Operations

Southwest Acute Hospital ENNISKILLEN, NORTHERN IRELAND The new Southwest Acute Hospital: grown out of the landscape of the green rolling hills and drumlins of Enniskillen, Ireland, feels rooted. The new building’s entrance is clad in the locally found Donegal shale and the top floors consist of timber and glass. Unlike most hospitals with deep floor plans, the building mass has been broken down and thinned into a group of four smaller blocks connected by glass links. These smaller blocks are further connected by a linear garden and a fulllength circulation spine that organizes the building. Intensive clinical services including the emergency department, operating suites, imaging, and labs are in front. Outpatient services are on the ground floor behind the entrance and single-patient bedrooms are on top. The first hospital in Northern Ireland with single patient rooms with full window walls, the result is humane, comfortable, and engaging while at the same time reducing and controlling infections. Southwest Acute is viewed by England’s National Health Service as one of its most successful projects to use a public- private partnership (PFI) approach. The new hospital is a real boon to Enniskillen. Services: Planning, Architecture, Interior Design
Hampton University Proton Therapy Institute HAMPTON, VIRGINIA, USA At the time of its completion in 2009, the Hampton University Proton Therapy Institute was the largest freestanding and fastest built proton therapy center in the United States. It is designed to treat approximately 2,000 patients per year. The facility houses five treatment rooms—four gantries and one fixed beam room—with the latest options for patient positioning and nozzle technologies. Massive equipment is often housed in a cavernous setting, commonly located below ground with little daylight. HUPTI is the first proton center designed on grade, keeping patients on one level. Placing treatment level on grade, Stantec designed the patient waiting areas with a large central glass atrium and glass windows which allow abundant natural daylight to penetrate the space, supporting a more patient-friendly environment. In addition, the Owner achieved a $3 million savings by eliminating deep foundation and excavation costs. Site constraints challenged installation and rigging into the building. A temporary road was constructed to bring the equipment to the rigging position for equipment installation. HUPTI’s architecture is designed in keeping with the University vocabulary reflective of the deep history representative of Hampton University. Services: Architecture, Interior Design
Mary Bird Perkins Our Lady of the Lake Cancer Center
Northwell Health, North Shore University Hospital - Katz Women’s Hospital
BATON ROUGE, LOUSIANA, USA
MANHASSET, NEW YORK, USA
Together, with Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center and Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center, we designed a space that provided patients, families and caregivers a sense of ease and assurance during the difficult treatment process; one that supported healing with light, texture and comfort, and removed unnecessary stressors for users of the space.
Northwell Health System engaged Stantec to initiate the design of the Obstetrics Expansion and Renovation at the Manhasset Campus. The hospital’s mission is to develop a hospitality style women’s pavilion that generates strong brand affinity, while remaining known for superior maternity care and state-of-the-art facilities.
Once separate entities in Baton Rouge, Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center (OLOLRMC) and Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center (MBPCC) partnered to offer comprehensive cancer care on one medical campus.
The project involved the renovation of existing ante-partum and post-partum beds and expansion of the existing unit into three floors. The first level of the Obstetrics expansion and renovation is the control point and contains 16 private beds in the Lippert Pavilion and an additional 28 private beds in the Monti Pavilion. The second level houses inpatient services, the nursery and 16 beds. The third level has 18 beds and is constructed as an over-build to the existing facility. The roof contains the mechanical units required to service the facility. There are additional support rooms for nourishment, lactation, staff lounge, filing rooms and other support requirements for the Obstetrics Department.
Stantec, who had recently completed a series of projects at OLOLRMC, had the opportunity to create a new space on the campus that embodied MBPCC & OLOLRMC’s joint commitment to the very best in cancer care for the Greater Baton Rouge community. The new center focuses on a premier patient experience, providing care in an uplifting environment that incorporates evidence-based design strategies for healthcare. To create this, Stantec performed an assessment of existing cancer care services and an in-depth analysis that mined for patient experience issues. Services: Planning, Architecture, Interior Design

Little Company of Mary Hospital Transformation Project
Bexley Wing, St James’s University Hospitals
EVERGREEN PARK, ILLINOIS, USA
LEEDS, ENGLAND, UK
When long-time client Little Company of Mary Hospital sought to position itself for future growth, we were engaged to develop a far-reaching modernization plan for comprehensive women’s services, birthing, postpartum, laboratory/pharmacy, food service, a conference center, and medical-surgical suites.
The new Bexley Wing is the largest cancer research hospital in Europe and a world-class facility which sets new standards of cancer care for the people of Yorkshire – a catchment area of 2.6 million people. Located on the St James’s University Hospital site, it provides research, teaching, and patient facilities together with a 1,300-space car park.
The resulting 280,000 square feet of new construction and 50,000 square feet of renovated space connects the new tower to the existing campus buildings, providing seamless access for patients. Importantly, the new tower design respects the cultural identification the community has with the original cruciform inpatient structure. The building embodies the spirit of the 1928 tower while modernizing the campus environment. Services: Planning, Architecture, Interior Design
Internally, we have created a hi-tech spine and three wings of patient accommodation separated and connected by a public gallery. To realise this immensely complex brief we employed innovative clinical and support groupings. These included fully-zoned clinical planning, integrated radiotherapy floor, integrated haematology floor, integrated research and clinical facilities, large daycase unit, and a family hotel. The administrative areas for both clinicians and researchers are organised into flexible open-plan office accommodation: the integration of Cancer Research UK and Yorkshire Cancer Network with the clinical areas is designed to promote translational research. Energy efficient features incorporated into the design of the building reduce the running costs of the hospital whilst increasing its environmental credentials. Services: Planning, Architecture
