Experts in Pediatric Office Design: Mansfield Health Center

Hasenstab Associates is known throughout northern Ohio for our innovative pediatric office design ideas. One such example is the 32,400-square-foot Mansfield Health Center which extends the outpatient offerings of Akron Children’s Hospital to the Mansfield community. The new health center serves a variety of pediatric needs including an urgent care clinic, specialty exams, rehabilitation and primary care.

Our architectural and interior design teams used their extensive knowledge about how environments can promote healing to inform their ideas for pediatric office design. Patients and families are greeted with an open waiting area and a generous amount of natural light. A welcome center with five check-in areas, as well as two check-in kiosks, expedites the process. A mini ball machine, modeled after the larger version at the main campus, provides a positive distraction for patients and visitors.

Primary care services are at the core of the Mansfield Health Center with 26 exam rooms staffed by Akron Children’s Hospital Pediatrics (ACHP). The design for the Mansfield Health Center’s urgent care area includes six exam rooms with the flexibility for additional rooms. Twelve universal-design exam rooms and one procedure room allow for various specialty practices to operate efficiently in the same space. This area is also designed with convenient access to important support functions including ultrasound, x-ray equipment, a lab with a draw room, echocardiography, and EKG.
