I want to create a 2 floor hospital. I want a breakroom/meeting place. Two maternity exam rooms/ two delivery rooms/ 2 recovery rooms. I would like the format to be to have maternity in its own wing. I would also like to have a pharmacy, I will be starting a new thread for pharmacy ideals. Also optometry, dentistry, and and a pediactric wing. A cafeteria with edibles, and a gift/vendor area. I will start different threads to talk about each room i depth, but these are a few ideas. I know there is some interest in having trauma and burn units as well. Lets all get what we want in the hospital, then we will discuss lay out in a new thread.

We did have a candy stripper position at the hospital. But, she never had anything to do, because we hardly actually admit patients to the hospital. We will discuss later on how to encourage roleplay and creative ways to admit patients to the hospital and it be enjoyable for all. Also for physical therapy, we are going to use the gym in the community. Gabrielle had thought about getting rid of it, but i asked her to add it to the hospital. She said that sounded like a great idea, i will ask her later if she still wants to do it. If we do add physical therapy, what exercise equipment would you all like to see used?

I agree we do need a bigger Emergency Department which would include trauma and burn unit as well. As far as size goes, what is the ideal size of the ER you would like it to be. How many different bays/beds would you like there to be incorportaed. Also, i agree, i we should have a lamaze area. Include some links from market place on design or equipment ideas you would like to see.

Wow this is going well, and I am lookign forward to hearing from the rest of the group. As we continue our discussions, lets think of a way to close the hospital. I wanted to close it this week, i think we all know what has gone down, and it really tore me up. But, after sleeping on it, I decided this shouldn't stop me from doing something i truly love to do. Now with that being said, Brooke, Burton, and Embree, I am making you all incharge of coming up with an ER design, I will start a thread just for you three to discuss what it shall have. You all will post what equipment you want to see, even if we already have it. Some one needs to sit down with and physical draw this out on photoshop or on paper and scan it in. Brooke you will mostly collabrate with the ER team on NICU set up. You will find your new thread soon. Thank you.

We are having to start to have patients ask for these extra services. Also I think dentistry and eye exams can go hand in hand with physicals and well children check ups. They don't have to be there own separate appointments.
