FCA developed this new hospital for the Anderson campus of the St. Luke University Health Network, combining the established brand of the health system with contemporary aesthetics, reflecting the migration of obstetric services from Easton, Pennsylvania to a more rural environment. The client’s vision is to provide an experience that is uniquely designed around the natural beauty of Lehigh Valley, while catering to modern facilities and patient values. The design respects their standards, but is in harmony with the multicultural and young patient groups in the surrounding community who will purchase obstetric services. The hospital’s plan includes a 32-bed postpartum ward, including 6 antenatal beds. The other floor includes a two-room caesarean section suite and room for future growth, as well as nine LDRs, a five-room triage suite and a 26-bed NICU. NICU consists of 18 compartments and 8 private rooms. The addition will also include the maternal-fetal medicine practice and postgraduate medical education program currently being developed for the first floor.
