Resources: Saving and Submitting Your Design in SmartDraw®

Your stakeholders would like to see your design ideas for your selected facility and would also like you to provide a summary of the project.

Part 1:

Open the template you chose from Week One in the SmartDraw® Designer. From that point, you will be able to modify the template and add the following information:

The health care structure such as walls, doors, hallways, waiting areas, and related structural components

Diagnostic and treatment space equipment and location

Customer service and amenities, such as the reception desk, bathroom, shower, vending machine, and so forth

Clinical support areas, such as nurse's station, charting areas, and so forth

Physician or dentist office space for patient consultation

Administrative offices

Building support, such as laundry, generator facilities, housekeeping, and so forth

Mechanical equipment, such as space for laboratory equipment, radiology equipment, gases such as oxygen, and suctions

Color and noise elements

Regulatory elements such as Occupational Safety and Health Administration and ADA guidelines

Sustainability options

Other elements such as IT or creative healing environmental ideas

Save your design once it is completed.

Part 2:

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word summary of your project that includes the following information:

If this is a new facility or a renovation

Reason you selected the facility

Who are your stakeholders for this project

What are your planning needs

What are your planning goals

Cost estimates for one room in your facility - provide a chart containing each item in the room, the items estimated cost, and a total for that one room.

How would you handle budget planning

What you learned from completing your own floor plan

What is your rationale for design choices

Any recommendations or suggestions for completing your floor plan differently - what would you do differently next time.
