Patient Rooms, MercyOne North Iowa
Bergland + Cram worked with MercyOne North Iowa staff to vet out a plan which could at once be standardized but flexible enough to accommodate for anomalies and varying dimensions of rooms floor to floor. It was determined that the general footprint of existing rooms would not be majorly altered as this would be too costly and the hospital could not afford the downtime. Therefore, a phasing plan was put in place for six rooms to be remodeled at a time as each department continues to fully operate.
