Challenge
With a project over budget and not supportive of their model of care, St. Joseph’s, a member of the Wheaton-Franciscan hospital group, turned to Array for design assistance with their new Center for Women & Infants.
Solution
Based on information gathered with user groups, we developed a solution that provided a new “front door” for the Women’s & Infants program, and enhanced all program components at half of the original construction cost estimate.
Result
The four-story Center for Women and Infants (CWI) is ranked among the Top 10% in the Nation for Maternity Care in 2012 and is recognized as one of the premiere facilities in the United States for high risk pregnancies.
