C US T O M E R E X P E R I E NC E DE SI GN DR I V E N Every patient, first and foremost, is a person - a person whose expectations are shaped by his/her ordinary day-to-day interactions with a variety of products, companies, and offerings. Is it any wonder that their healthcare expectations are based on these same interactions? These experiences can be drawn from someone’s office, their neighborhood bakery, their local grocery store, their last vacation or shopping online. They want the ease of mobile boarding passes, the timesaving convenience of meal kit services, the immediacy of ride-hailing apps, the intimacy of boutique hotels and the personalization of online personal-styling services. In understanding these expectations and establishing the framework from which to build, customer experience design strategy is leveraged to connect the often disparate moments across the healthcare experience continuum.

MASTER PLANNING

Little River, SC The design team at Little Diversified Architectural Consulting developed a master plan for McLeod Health at Seacoast Hospital in Little River, SC. They conducted interviews, reviewed the existing facility, and created options for campus expansion. The final plan includes site circulation, infrastructure improvements, additional parking, and an expanded central energy plant. New construction will include surgery and ICU expansion, a bed tower, and an enlarged emergency department. Existing services like the lab, pharmacy, and imaging will be renovated. The hospital will grow by 136 beds. The team worked with a contractor to develop construction phases and cost estimates. They are currently building a staff parking deck to address shortages and create space for expansion.

LEVINE CANCER INSTITUTE E XPANSION Charlotte, NC 260,000 sf The Levine Cancer Institute, the first multi-site cancer center in the world to be certified by the Planetree Organization, has a mission of providing a comforting experience for patients, families, and caregivers as they journey toward healing. Patient experience workshops, facilitated in collaboration with the Patient/Family Advisory Council, informed the design’s guiding principles of celebrating interaction, supporting the journey, providing holistic care, and honoring mind/body/spirit. These principles are embodied in the numerous experience elements found throughout, namely the interfaith chapel, centralized lab/registration area, improved dining facilities, infusion bays with vegetative roof views, and extensive natural light.

Two pedestrian bridges link Level 03 to the north and the east sides of campus. This connection to the hospital lead to the decision to locate the Pediatric Conference Center and the Cancer and Blood Disorders Clinic on Level 03. The Conference Center, which will host both staff meetings and larger multidisciplinary events, includes a large conference room for eighty that can be divided into three smaller rooms, a small 15 seat conference room, and a pre-function area with a catering kitchen.

The Cancer and Blood Disorders Clinic includes a welcoming lobby, 18 exam rooms in 2 clinical neighborhoods, 25 private infusion rooms, 1 two-seat Infusionarium infusion room, lab, multipurpose room, art / activity room, and administrative areas. The graphic theme of “city” is used for wayfinding and playful distractions throughout the clinic.

In creating Charlotte’s first MIBG therapy suite, the client sought to develop a care environment that promotes a more holistic approach to healing and well-being. Little was able to alleviate the prolonged isolation MIGB patients experience due to the radioactive nature of treatment by converting two existing rooms into a unique therapy suite design; one that features a treatment room for the patient and a protected adjoining room for parents, caregivers and staff, with a lead-lined window between. The environment of the patient room is further enhanced through a specialized, fiber optic light system that mirrors a starry night with planets and shooting stars.

A primary design goal was to improve both the patient experience and the staff workflow. The clinic expands from the existing 10 exam rooms to 25 exam rooms housed in three neighborhood clinic modules. To help accomplish this impactful project, former Pro Bowl Tight End for the Carolina Panthers, Greg Olson and his family generously donated $2.5 million through his charity Receptions for Research: The Greg Olson Foundation.

AT RIUM HE A LT H: MUSCULOSK EL E TA L INS T I T U T E Charlotte, NC 160,000 sf With the goal to create a destination for expanded Musculoskeletal Medicine procedures and education, Atrium Health established a Musculoskeletal Institute on their Mercy Hospital Campus in Charlotte, NC. This is a net new program for the fastest growing healthcare system in the region. They have gotten some of the top surgeons and researchers to join under one umbrella and advance Musculoskeletal care for Charlotte and beyond. They also plan to use the Institute to teach and recruit new residents/surgeons. To accommodate the growing needs of the program, Little’s Healthcare team came on board to design extensive renovations and expansions to the 117-year-old hospital. These enhancements include adding four new, state-of-the-art modular operating rooms and modernizing two existing operating rooms into procedure rooms. Additionally, to properly support the added operating rooms with optimum efficiency, the Sterile Processing Department required a full renovation plus an expansion to existing space.

The new three-story Bed Tower features 64 large, all-private patient rooms designed to create a quality patient care zone for the staff while providing dedicated spaces for families and visitors in the patient rooms as well as in public areas. The patient rooms, designed to accommodate differing levels of patient acuity, are modular such that they can be easily retrofitted in the future should the patient mix change. In addition to the modularity of the patient room design, the overall floor plan is divided into groups of eight-bed nursing pods surrounding a central core of support areas.

HOSPICE OF T HE UPS TAT E Anderson, SC Master Facility Plan Hospice of the Upstate established the first hospice in SC in 1998 on a 55 acre campus in the eastern area of the county. The recent changes to Hospice care reimbursement created the opportunity for their Board of Directors to undertake a master facility plan to align their new strategic plan with their aging facility of 50,000 SF. The Little team kicked off the project with a visioning session focused on gaining input from diverse representatives from the community, the clinical and support staff, and the families of current and former patients. Followed by intense on-site workshops the final master plan identified four areas of improvements: facilities, site access, infrastructure, and brand recognition in the community. Planned initiatives range from improved staff workflow with larger patient rooms, enhanced family amenities, additional staff respite areas, vehicular entry upgrades, community walking trails, and rebranding their more patient focused strategy with the community.

A DV EN T HE A LT H HE A LT H PA RK Central Florida 41,000 sf This design for a new regional Health Park redefines the traditional medical office environment and patient experience. Responding to the client’s requirements of promoting a strong sense of community and patient interaction through a rich sequence of shared and social spaces that provide a connection to the community. Places of collaboration, comfort, and contemplative solitude are created through thoughtful spaces and control of light. With this unique focus on wellness, as opposed to a traditional medical planning with a clinical tenant, the paradigm of sterile and often uninviting medical clinics shifts by introducing experiential and programmatic elements throughout the patient’s journey. This promotes better interactions with caregivers, transforming an otherwise often anxious moment, into a calmer, more beneficial one.
