Dear administration

Dear hospital administration,

Hi, I’m just a lowly nurse here in your hospital but may I make a suggestion?

Please, PLEASE include the staff that will be working in a new area in the design of that new area!

I know you think you, the architect, and the contractor know what’s best but you don’t. YOU DON’T. You all look at what looks good. I mean, everything looks great on paper. What you aren’t paying attention to is whether or not the area will function for staff.

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve walked into a new area and immediately started picking out what doesn’t work, what needs to be moved, and what needs to be completely redesigned. I’ve seen areas opened and then closed so it could be “remodeled”.

Stop it!

You could save money, time, and stress by doing it right the first time. Let us be a part of the planning process. Let us be a part of the “walk through”. Talk to us and find out what we do and don’t need in the new area. Talk to US! It will benefit everyone in the long run, I promise…
