Necessitated by an aging population in Newburgh, Indiana, Deaconess opened their Deaconess Orthopedic and Neuroscience Hospital in 2018. This top-rated medical facility architecture exemplifies innovation in healthcare, focusing on design to optimize patient outcomes.
The new six story patient tower spans 215,000 square feet and begins with 64 beds, with the capacity to expand to 96 beds in the future. Within, a complete range of services are offered, including interventional, medical, and surgical, as well as diagnostic imaging, therapy, research, and education.
Upon arrival, visitors experience a cutting-edge facility designed by our top-rated designers to enhance interior architecture and patient well-being. Natural light floods the space through a two story glass curtainwall and a skylight rotunda. Our best interior designers created an inviting atmosphere with modern interiors, a welcoming café, retail spaces, and comfortable waiting areas. A custom 20’ x 30’ art feature inspired by the Ohio River sets the tone for a nature-centric healing environment. Additionally, a second hanging art installation is suspended over an interior stone garden, symbolizing movement and transformation.
Each of the patient rooms features floor-to-ceiling windows and provides modern conveniences for patients and families. The staff zone is extremely efficient. The 6’-0” workspace optimizes workflow, keeping essential resources within reach. As a result, the Deaconess Orthopedic and Neuroscience Hospital custom hospital planning and design prioritize both patient comfort and medical efficiency.
