The new Women's Center at Adventist
Medical Center Hanford was designed to
embrace the total care of mother/child/family. The facility marks a new direction for
Women's and Children care in the Central
Valley that extends beyond the pure clinical
care. The entire family experience is supported with carefully considered environments in three outdoor-activated courtyards,
a custom-designed lounge and café, living
rooms, education spaces, and family accommodations in the all-private patient room
model. Expansion of services is planned for
a future increment of ten postpartum beds
as the service expands. Staff are supported
with day-lit nursing areas, garden views, and
lounge and meeting spaces.
Perkins Eastman provided full interior
design and architectural services for the
project which includes 11 LDRPs, 4 AP and 16
Postpartum Rooms, and a 6-bed NICU, operated in conjunction with Valley Children's
Hospital.

Originally envisioned as a 12,000 sq. ft. interior remodel within
an existing, three-story tiered building, the Chao Comprehensive
Digestive Disease Center is now a prominent gateway building
that defines the southern edge of UC Irvine Medical Center's
campus core.
Adding much needed additional clinical and support space, the
expanded building includes a new entrance lobby, registration area,
and waiting area on the first floor of the building. Previous reception
and waiting space was converted into lecture and classroom space to
support the teaching functions of the service line. The second floor
is the new procedural hub of the department and houses both procedure and recovery space. The third floor addition and renovation
provides expanded clinical functions and adds much needed staff
offices and support space.
The new design of the procedure suites and prep and recovery
areas provides two key benefits to staff and patients. The clinical
staff benefits from the latest imaging and diagnostic technologies
in the new procedure rooms, which are about 1.5 times the size and
infrastructure of the previous rooms. Patients now experience complete privacy in their prep and recovery, replacing tight quarters
separated only by curtains with the prior facility. Patients also benefit by the expansion of the clinic on the third floor to provide more
convenient one-stop service for their doctor visits and procedures.
