We engage our clients and develop design solutions that directly relate to their needs. The result is an efficient, cost-effective, and flexible space that responds to the true needs of patients, families, staff, and the communities our clients serve.

Cancer Centers

HGA has a great depth of knowledge and experience when it comes to designing oncology, cancer centers, and infusion clinics in both inpatient and outpatient settings. From the planning of oncology and clinical research facilities to the design of therapeutic treatment spaces, HGA’s patient-centered process ensures those who are ill receive their care in a holistic and healing environment.

Emergency Departments

The emergency department is often the first point of contact with a medical facility, and experiences there can significantly affect how patients feel about the overall quality of care they receive at the hospital. One of the biggest components of patients’ emergency department experience is how long they have to wait before and during care.

With the help of HGA's Design Insight Group, we are empowered to design an Emergency Department that is optimized to best support a hospital's unique patient population thus improving efficiency At HGA, we understand what it takes to create a safe, inclusive and stress-free environment specific to emergency departments.

Pediatrics

Pediatric patients are complex – the range of patients served in pediatric facilities is unlike any other institution. From infancy through early adulthood, each patient comes with a unique set of needs specific to their diagnosis. The design must be sensitive to the child’s emotional needs and their physiological disease or injury, providing comfort and reducing stress for not just the child but the whole family.

HGA’s design for pediatric facilities is multifaceted, responding to the varied needs of patients, families, and hospital staff. Spaces facilitate interaction and healing through playrooms, whimsical art, range in furniture sizes and a connection to nature.

Behavioral Health

We recognize the importance of creating safe, comfortable, and supportive behavioral health environments. Each patient is in their own unique place along the continuum of care and changing needs per person is an inevitable part of behavioral health spaces.

HGA has extensive experience in behavioral health design and a commitment to providing high-quality spaces that encourage dignity and support all those who live, visit, and work within them.
