Lean design is predicated on identifying and delivering customer value. These values are deeply rooted within an individual or an organization and difficult to extract, by people trained in the design and construction but not in understanding the complexities of human behavior. To address this need, Taylor Design has evolved its model of practice by teaming a staff of strategists trained in the social sciences with its staff of architects and designers in the delivery of design services.

Meeting Goals and Next Steps
The purpose of this meeting is to introduce the
design strategy that has been developed based on
the stakeholder and user research, in addition to any
operational and business plans we understand to date.
This meeting will also establish the foundation for design.
Next steps in the design process will include adjacency
and floor plan explorations, and conceptual design
inspirations.

quality patient care
• patients are being healed
and getting results
• in control of workflow and
patient care
• they have adequate tools
and technology to do their
best work
24. 11
The front desk staff is the
first point of in-person
interaction with the clinic,
and currently, staff do
not feel well-equipped to
provide the best patient
care possible.
Summary of Interviews and Observations
25. 12
The open floorplan between
the waiting room and the gym
blurs the rules of appropriate
interactions and expectations
between staff and patients,
creating less than ideal
circumstances.
Summary of Interviews and Observations
26. 13
While some clinical staff
believes there are an
adequate number of
private rooms in the gym,
patient feedback suggests
there is a need for more
privacy.
Summary of Interviews and Observations
27. 14
The charting room
helps strengthen
the supportive
culture of staff, but
is not optimal for
collaboration and
focus work.
Summary of Interviews and Observations

Activity Analysis - Waiting Room
Findings and Recommendations
Waiting Room Utilization
Design a space that can accommodate 9-11 persons with
varying levels of abilities and needs, including patients and
their caregivers.
• There are an average of 5 persons in the waiting room at
any given time, without significant s based on time of day.
• At any given time, there are 2-4 people who are need of
additional space based on their condition (crutch, walker,
wheelchair, post-op knee).
• Designing a waiting room for 9 persons will accommodate
95% of cases based on the average and the standard
deviation of the data.
• Designing a waiting room for 11 persons will
accommodate 99% of cases based on the average and the
standard deviation of the data.
29. 16
Activity Analysis - Waiting Room
Additional Recommendations
Waiting Room Utilization
Accommodate the following needs of patients and
caregivers in the waiting room:
• a sense of privacy
- physical
- acoustic
• a sense of personal space
• a sense of calm and quiet
• space to accomplish tasks while waiting for appointment,
or while waiting for patient’s appointment to end
30. 17
Activity Analysis - Private Treatment Rooms
Private Treatment
Room Utilization
Findings and Recommendations
Private rooms are used primarily to accommodate privacy, both
physical and auditory.
Current rooms are not large enough to accommodate caregivers
Curtained hi-low beds do not provide auditory privacy
Private rooms must provide the following:
• sense of privacy and safety
• space to accommodate multiple people, including
caregivers

Activity Analysis - Private Treatment Rooms
Private Treatment
Room Utilization
Recommendations
It is recommended that the space be designed to
accommodate 3 private treatment rooms.
• All 3 private rooms have a high utilization rate
throughout the day.
• Providing more than 3 rooms would have a good
utilization rate, although 3 rooms are sufficient.
33. 20
Design Exploration Questions
1. How could patient care, privacy and safety be enhanced with
a reconsidered gym layout and/or additional square footage?
2. How can the front desk and waiting room design help create a
better patient experience?
3. How can the waiting room support the needs of caregivers?
4. How can the charting room support multiple functions and
be used more efficiently?
