With a focus on creating a patient-centered,
healing environment, CallisonRTKL's design
of the new, eight-level inpatient pavilion cultivates
clarity, flexibility and longevity, while
infusing new energy into the community.
The design of the medical center establishes a
benchmark for world-class care and sustainable
design, while offering patients and staff a destination
of choice for healthcare.
The patient pavilion houses 290 private patient
rooms, a new emergency department, loading
dock, central plant expansion, interventional
suite, conference center, cafe, helipad, and new
hospital inpatient lobby. The campus is partitioned
into four distinct, separate zones: inpatient,
outpatient, service, and emergency.
A hospitality-inspired aesthetic envelops the
interior design of the hospital. The design simulates
a five-star hotel with textures, tones and
fixtures, while carefully considering patient process
and flow, caregiver patterns, and contemporary
care delivery to ensure a holistic, humancentric
care experience. Natural light saturates
the entry, lobby and waiting spaces through expansive
floor to ceiling glass window walls. Light
tile flooring, whitewashed walls and tonal fixtures
instantly calm patients to initiate the healing
process. A connection to nature is further instilled
through patient room views overlooking
the Hudson River to reduce anxiety and support
mental health and wellness.
The intentional infusion of blues and cool
tones instills tranquility and security within patients
and visitors, while subtly symbolizing the
Hudson River. Nods to nature are interwoven
into even minute details to increase patient and
visitor satisfaction.
