GUIDELINE TO PLANNING and designing AN IMAGING OFFICE

RECEPTION AND WAITING AREA

Equipped with computer systems, phones, and secure storage for patient records. Sound barriers to ensure private conversations about health and billing. Provide seating options for elderly patients or those with mobility issues. Incorporate natural lighting where possible; use soft artificial lighting to avoid harshness. Artwork, plants, and decorative elements that create a calming environment.
