This session explores how value is added when Lean process improvement, evidence-based design, and clinician engagement are integrated. Presenters will review the Indiana University Health West Vertical Expansion project as a case study and describe the three primary approaches utilized. Lean process improvement techniques studied the current state; evidence-based design was overlaid on the Lean process improvement to uncover current state analysis and future state design interventions; and staff were fully engaged to work on integrated design events, making them stewards of the design across the facility. This combined approach allowed the team to simultaneously address process, design, and people.

 

 

Learning Objectives

  • Understand how Lean activities facilitate and integrate with the evidence-based design process.
  • Visualize how space syntax informs the design process in order to improve outcomes.
  • Recognize the benefit of staff engagement and buy-in in the evidence-based design and Lean process.
  • Apply lessons learned within the integrated design process and their effect on the project schedule, quality, cost, staff engagement, and evidence-based design.

 

Presenting Faculty

Jen Worley, NCIDQ, EDAC, LEED AP ID+C, Director, Design Research, BSA LifeStructures

Chase Miller, RA, NCARB, Director, Planning, BSA LifeStructures

From a young age (third grade career day, to be exact), Chase Miler always knew he wanted to be an architect. He was drawn toward healthcare architecture and planning through his wife’s battle with chronic pain and disease, becoming a catalyst for his career. The complexity and connectivity of healthcare environments fascinate him, supporting organizations from the strategic, facility, and capital planning to space planning, programming, and pre-design, facilitating exceptional care delivery.

 

Joe Sagen, NCARB, Project Architect, BSA LifeStructures

With a primary focus on healthcare, Joe Sagen relishes the challenge of creating reliable healing spaces after focusing on designing multiple healthcare spaces while in graduate school. From medical office buildings to chapel designs for medical campuses, Joe has experience in recognizing the type of impact that design has on the healthcare system. Joe holds a Master of Architecture and Bachelor of Science degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Did You Know?


Many attendees of The Center for Health Design’s webinars have inquired about IDCEC approval so they can earn ASID, IIDA, and IDS CEU’s. We have looked into this and unfortunately, the cost to upload courses to IDCEC is simply too high at this time. You can still earn credit for attending our webinars by requesting a verification certificate. As of July 9, 2020, The Center for Health Design requires a CEU management fee for verification certificates for all webinars and EBD Journal Clubs. Please contact Natalie Gonzalez, Project Manager, ngonzalez@healthdesign.org
