Hospital Transition Planning Services
Medical Design Consulting Services & Hospital Move Management
The building of a new or replacement patient care facility is among the most complex projects in the design, engineering and building industries. It is understandable, therefore, that many healthcare consultants, owner's representatives, administrators, and project managers perceive that the completion of the construction of the facility is the essential "end game."
The reality is that the end game of a successful hospital transition project is the successful delivery of patient care on the first day of occupancy. To ensure this occurs requires as much planning and management as the design and construction of the facility itself. The Carter Group offers medical design consulting services to make your hospital transition a smooth one.
There are numerous factors in a hospital transition project:
- Medical Departments
- Administrative and Operational Departments
- Air Quality and Infection Control Testing
- Training of Hundreds of Personnel on New Equipment
- Equipment Installation
- Commissioning and Acceptance
- Government Agency Inspections and Compliance
- Patient Migration Planning, and much more
At The Carter Group, our goal of your hospital transition project is to ensure all of these are orchestrated and managed with a successful hospital move management plan.
To ensure the first surgical procedure or diagnostic test meets the standards of the institution requires the planning and coordination of thousands of tasks, items, schedules, and people. The risks inherent in this hospital transition process are as large as during the construction phase and must be managed to ensure success. The Carter Group mitigates this risk by providing strategic and tactical hospital transition planning as well as implementation management in the following areas:
