Hospital sets up model patient room
0211hospital 1
Northeast Georgia Medical Center has a mock-up of one of its new Braselton hospital’s rooms in the Gainesville hospital’s basement. It saves money and lets architects and craftsmen see problems before they build, said Rudy Lonergan, director of facilities development.
Northeast Georgia Health System officials don’t have to look at blueprints or artist renderings to know how patient rooms at the new Braselton hospital will look — and they certainly won’t have to wait until they’re in place. Hospital officials have built a “mock-up” of a typical room at the 100-bed Northeast Georgia Medical Center Braselton, which is under construction off Ga. 347 near Ga. 211/Old Winder Highway in South Hall. The room in the basement of Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville has no power, except for lighting, or running water, but otherwise, looks nearly good to go.
