At The East Group, a major focus of our business is dedicated to the design of buildings and infrastructure to support the many environments where Healthcare is delivered. We understand the complex systems, codes, and evidence based design that’s needed to provide safe and healing environments. We also know that every facility has differing needs and models for patient care and we firmly embrace the user group/patient advocacy process. At the beginning of every project, we help define the critical success factors.
