Allowing all patient rooms equal access and excellent visibility from the nurses station is a primary benefit of this circular patient tower concept. A sweeping 300-degree nurses station surrounds an ample service core, and this ICU configuration permits daylight to permeate through the patient rooms. Wayfinding is greatly simplified, and VCT floor patterning and maple with a cherry stain continue the nature theme.
