New Emergency Department at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania - Pavilion

The new, state-of-the-art Emergency Department features:

• 61 patient exam rooms
• 9 rapid assessment rooms
• 4 resuscitation bays
• 36 acute care rooms
• 12 forward flow rooms

And also:

• Vertical care model All ED patients see a physician right away and are triaged appropriately. In this model, beds and rooms are available to the sickest patients who need them the most, and every patient is seen and has their needs addressed quickly and efficiently.
• Providers come to the patient Helping to increase the speed with which a patient receives treatment, all healthcare providers will come to the patient in the triage room— rather than have the patient move from station to station for different steps during their initial evaluation, such as from the initial intake consultation to getting their blood drawn, etc.
• Caregility monitoring In resuscitation rooms for OB emergencies
• Expanded imaging and testing CT and X-Ray capabilities on both ground and mezzanine floors, and Point of Care testing
• Redesigned rooms The spaces in which patients will await results in the Pavilion was designed with privacy and comfort in mind, with cubicle-style dividers and comfy reclining chairs. Each space has natural light and room for one visitor.
