Wilkerson Associates utilized a strategy-based process, which incorporated statistical data and analysis to "right size" the new Emergency Department into an operationally functional design. This is to allow for increasing volumes and provide additional privacy and confidentiality to patients as well as improve the organization, flow and through-put of patients. The expanded department will include a new ambulance entrance, 24 exam rooms with 2 large dedicated trauma rooms, 4 additional trauma bays, 6 universal rooms, 12 exam rooms, and a large central nurse station with visualization of the exam room. The new ambulance entrance can accommodate 6 emergency vehicles.
