Running head: OUTPATIENT HEALTH CARE CENTRE HCS 466 Week 1 Assignment Facility Planning: Outpatient Health Care Centre Ruby Gamble University of Phoenix 1 OUTPATIENT HEALTH CARE CENTRE 2 Outpatient Health Care Centre Health care centers are an essential part of society. They are responsible for ensuring that the people that are living in that society have the best medical care. Health care centers are important in that they provide viable health solutions for any patient that comes through their doors. In my community, there was a need to have a health care center that would cater for any outpatient needs that the society has (American Bar Association, 2005). The nearest health care center was quite a distance, a fact that discouraged many patients to go to hospital in good time until it was too late and their symptoms had become very severe. This made it a challenge for the doctors to completely heal a patient that came to them. For the patients that were able to get medical attention and be healed, it took too long and their symptoms had advanced to a level that they need to have more medical attention than they would have if they had come into hospital earlier than the time they came in. Grey Sloan memorial is a health care facility that recently opened in my community. The hospital caters for outpatient needs of any patients that come to their emergency room. The facility is located in town where it is accessible to majority of the people that live in the locality (Klein & Platt, 2009). The health care center is big enough to cater for any sort of trauma that might happen in the society as a means of first aid before they are transferred to the general hospital that offers inpatient services. The facility is well furnished with all the equipment that is needed by patients. From the waiting bay to the consultation rooms, the facility is well fitted with state of the art equipment that makes it easier to diagnose a patient and give them the relevant services that they require. The health care center has a system that enables the doctors and nurses to be able to record and access all patient information at the touch of a button. Once a patient walks into the OUTPATIENT HEALTH CARE CENTRE 3 facility, it is the responsibility of the nurse that attends to him or her to ensure that they get all the information and medical history of the patient that would enable the doctor to accurately and promptly diagnose the patient. All the information is stored in the institution’s database and it is used to ensure that the patients are in a position to diagnosed and ensure that the symptoms that are presented are not a side effect of a previous drug taken. Another advantage that the facility has is the fact that they have their own pharmacy. The pharmacy stocks all the drugs and medication that a patient might require. It is an initiative that has been embraced very well as every patient is assured that once they have been diagnosed they will get their medication and will go home fully treated. It is different than other health care centers that a person takes the prescription that has been written for it to go get filled at another pharmacy (Klein & Platt, 2009). Being that the facility is still new it is certain that the management have many more plans for the community. There are rumors that there are plans to continue construction of wards so that the facility can also have an inpatient wing for any patients that need more medical attention. The community really needed a health care center that they could rely on. They needed a facility that was near to them and had all the equipment that would make them be easily diagnosed. With Grey Sloan memorial Health Care Centre in the society, it has been able to deal with a myriad of cases before they became fatal to the patient. The society now has quick and dependable medical attention close to their homes. They need not to worry about the distance that they have to cover in order for them to get the medical attention that they need. There was great urgency to have such a set up in the society and has been embraced well with the community of over one thousand people that initially did not have such a platform.

Once you are on the Toolwire® landing page, click the Lab Access link toward the bottom of the page. On the Toolwire® MedSpace Designer page, click on the green Get Started Now banner in the lowerright corner of the “Start Designing with MedSpce Designer” page. Select one of the five templates for the type of facility you would like to work with during your course assignments. The five templates are aligned with your design options in the course syllabus. This places your template on a graph paper screen filling ¾ of the screen. At this point, the image is 2-D and a black bar is above the graph paper. Remember, you need to design in 2-D. You can click on 3-D at any point to see what your design looks like in 3-D, but you will be unable drag and drop. Click on 3-D to see the basic floor plan in 3-D. You can rotate the 3-D image by using the arrows found in the upper-right corner of the 3-D page. Click back to 2-D to continue designing. When you access MedSpace Designer, an account will be created for you automatically using your IRN. Locating Design Option and Assets Notice the white column on the left-side of your screen adjacent to the graph paper containing your facilities template. At the top of the column are the word “Catalog” and a small field for searching all of the assets. Below Catalog, is a small green house in a black tab. Click the down arrow to reveal the product categories that you can access to drag and drop into your template. Design Medical contains assets unique to medical facilities, while the other categories, which are free to use, are more related to residential designs. The assets in the Catalog are separated by type and function. If you want to see all of the medical assets, regardless of function, click Brands & Collections at the bottom of the column. The first brand is Toolwire. Click on it to access the complete list of medical assets. Place your mouse over the specific assets for more details about each asset. Resizing the Template Before you drag and drop any of the assets into the template, you may wan to make the template larger for greater designing ease. To do this, note the small green triangle on the slider bar on the far right-side of the black bar running across the top of page. You can change the size of your template several ways: 1) Click and hold on the green triangle. Sliding it to the right makes the template larger, and sliding it to the left makes it smaller. 2) An easier way to enlarge or reduce the size of the template is to click the Magnifying Glass on the right end of the bar to enlarge the template or on the left end of the bar to make it smaller. 3) If you want to center and return the template to its original size, click the four-cornered box to the right of the right-side Magnifying Glass. 4) If you want to go to full-screen mode, click the four-arrow box to the far right end of the black bar. 5) Click on escape to go back to regular mode.

Once you have the asset in the room, click on it again, you will see a vertical black bar beside the asset. The first time you drag and drop an asset into a room, explore the options that the vertical black bar provides. Two of the more important options are the ability to duplicate the asset (for dragging and dropping the same asset into a different room), and the “X”, which gives you the option to delete an asset from that room. In addition to the vertical black bar, the yellow circle with a curved arrow in it below the assets gives you the ability to position your items in the correct facing directions. Once again, experiment with the yellow circle to make sure your asset is facing the direction you intend. You need to click and hold the circle to make it work. After you face the asset in the correct direction, click and hold the asset, and then drag it to the place where you want it to be in the room. Click on the 3-D option in the black bar at the top of the page to see how your asset looks. Remember, if you want to move it or delete it, you need to be in 2-D mode. Snapshot Option Notice on the right side of the 3-D view, that there is an option for Snapshots. Only use this option when your design is completed. This option notifies the file serve to produce a photo-quality image of the specific camera angle you have chosen for it to record. If you select Snapshot, it will take several minutes for it to produce the image—the length of time being determined by how many users are requesting photo images at that time. You will be asked to provide an e-mail address to which notification can be sent that the photo is completed. How to Save Your Design Just like a written document, save your design frequently during your working session, and finally at the end. When you return to MedSpace Designer, you can open the design and continue to work on it. To save your design, use the pull-down menu “File” and select Save. The design document is NOT saved to your machine, but rather is saved on the Toolwire® server. This provides the advantage of being able to access your design on any computer to work on it or to show other people. How to Submit Your Finished Document to Your Instructor After you have saved your design, you have the choice to copy the URL for retrieval to submit to your instructor on completion of your assignment. To do that, copy the URL, and e-mail it to your instructor using your personal UOPX course assignment folder. When you click on the Copy URL tab, you won’t see anything happen, but when you open your e-mail, it will be there for you to paste into the body of the e-mail to send to your instructor. Experiment by sending yourself a URL of an example design you have created. This will give you a good idea of what your instructor will see when you send the URL of your completed project. Help With Technical Issues If it seems that the design you’re working on has vanished, don’t panic. Click the four-corner box to the right of the right-side Magnifying Glass in the black bar at the top of the graph paper. Your design will return to the center of your screen. Your design did not vanish. The sizing mechanism is very sensitive, Copyright © 2013 by University of Phoenix.
