I would like to recommend this article – Better Care by Design from Imaging Informatics (by Dennis L. Kaiser, AIA, LEED® AP) where it talks about “patient and family-oriented design of imaging facilities responds to changing demographics and can help build business”.
Personally, I like the concept he mentioned in A Patient- and Family-Centered Department section where all imaging equipment (of all the specialities) within a hospital are located in one single department to enable better workflow (I made the same suggestion to a hospital I work for about 6 years ago but it didn’t take off).
I hope you enjoy the article 🙂
