βThe architects at Greenleaf are a dynamic customer oriented team. With the use of advanced technology, they established a guided collaborative process to not only create a product that we are happy with, but they did it efficiently and within budget. With stringent hospital regulations, they conducted thorough research for our design, which lead to a successful Louisiana Department of Health survey. We are extremely pleased with our hospital expansion and would utilize Greenleaf for future endeavors.β
Have you seen the code book for a Psychiatric Facility? Many regulations are put in place to protect patients, protect employees and overall improve the health of those needing a facility of this type. The challenge of following the code book was not the only task here. The Behavioral Health Unit was to fit within an existing 3rd Floor cold, dark shell constructed in the 1970s. Limitations on clearances, sources of natural light, and integration into existing mechanical and plumbing systems presented challenges for the entire design team.
