The ACEM Emergency Department (ED) Design Guidelines are intended to support clinicians in the design process, and inform government, health planners, architects and designers about what constitutes a
Get the best line of sight possible. Line of sight is very important in emergency departments, both for patient and staff safety. Making sure that there are as few blind corners as possible is key.
It covers a range of key ideas and concepts that must be considered, including creation of an internal ED team, the hiring of a team of outside professionals (architects, engineers, and builders), and the appropriate project scope in lieu of budgetary and spatial constraints.
In the United States, hospitals build new emergency departments (EDs) every 15 to 20 years. Renovations of existing EDs occur every 5 to 10 years. The main concerns of ED designers are providing efficient spaces for routine care, handling peak volumes, and anticipating future needs.
Four key principles were derived- (1) situational awareness, surveillance and perimeter defence, (2) ED staff protection, (3) surge capacity management and (4) ED recovery. The findings were integrated in a proposed conceptual framework to guide ED design in response to an infectious disease outbreak.
design professionals and design students gathered to consider the challenges clinicians encounter in EDs every day and to look for opportunities to improve ED functionality through design.
