Pediatrics
Karlsberger has provided planning and design services for many top-rated children’s hospitals across the United States and Canada. We have immersed ourselves in designing healing environments for children’s hospitals and “children’s hospitals within a hospital”, creating comforting and functional spaces for families and the professionals who take care of them.
We are actively involved with and are the founding patron sponsor of the National Association for Children’s Hospitals and Related Institutions (NACHRI).
Lehigh Valley Hospital – Pediatric Emergency Room
The pediatric waiting area is tucked away from general ED seating which provides separation of the two waiting areas. A fun wave pattern in the floor, referred to as “the river,” draws children into the space and the bright colors and tactile translucent wall panels create a positive diversion.
SUNY Upstate Medical University – Upstate Golisano Children’s Hospital
SUNY Upstate Medical University is a 366-bed teaching medical center located in downtown Syracuse. The vertical expansion of the East Wing of the Hospital will provide additional bed capacity and private patient rooms that meet today’s standards.
Niswonger Children’s Hospital
The 37-bed tertiary care “children’s hospital within a hospital” includes a dedicated pediatric ED with its own entry and treatment zone; a pediatric surgical suite with two ORs and its own pre/post op and holding/recovery areas; and several PICU, med/surg and NICU beds.
Children’s National Medical Center NICU
Children’s National Medical Center’s (CNMC) Neonatology Program is ranked in the top 10 in the country according to U.S. News. The NICU is the region’s only Level III C, the highest distinction available by the American Academy of Pediatrics’ guidelines.
All Children’s Hospital
The solution was to design a new 259-bed total replacement facility for All Children’s Hospital and to literally design Bayfront’s obstetrics services into the new pediatric hospital – a unique approach to the hospital within a hospital concept.
All Children’s Hospital – Outpatient Care Center
A bridge connects the Outpatient Care Center to the hospital across the street to the north as well as a second bridge linking the MOB to the primary parking garage to the south.
Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center
Based on best practices programming and a focus on patient safety, this standardized approach is expected to reduce the risk of medical errors.
Levine Children’s Hospital
The design of the hospital uses light, technology, and art to create an environment that is dynamic and interactive. The building’s translucent skin allows natural light in which is then manipulated by colorful laminated films and dichroic glass, creating prismatic effects that bring the hospital to life.
Dell Children’s Medical Center of Central Texas
The new Dell Children’s Medical Center of Central Texas offers the first-ever look at a trend-setting hospital that is groundbreaking not only in its design, but in its commitment to the environment.
