Behavioral Health In-and-Outpatient Medical Tower | Norfolk, VA

DESCRIPTION
Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters engaged Array Architects & PF&A Design to create a new patient tower to deliver both inpatient and outpatient behavioral health services. The Medical Tower II story is not simply about how CHKD is constructing a building to address an immediate community need, but how through integrated innovation, collaboration, and leadership, their goal will be realized in a way which will set new standards for how healthcare providers respond to today’s needs and anticipate the undefined challenges of the future. The Day Hospital and outpatient clinics will offer a complement of step-down services to provide a continuum of care for behavioral health patients of this crucial and under-served service line. The Outpatient Specialty Clinics will provide services such as General Academic Pediatrics, Sports Medicine, Radiology, and other general ambulatory services.
