Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center
At Invision Development, we believe that healthcare facilities should be designed with the patient’s well-being and comfort in mind, while also supporting the unique operational needs of medical providers. Our recent ground-up build-to-suit project for Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center is a prime example of how thoughtful construction can positively impact both patients and staff, creating a space that fosters healing and efficiency.
Project Overview
Client: Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center
Location: Debary, Florida
Project Type:Â Ground-Up Build-to-Suit
Square Footage: 3,000sf
Timeline: Four months planning, design and permitting followed by six months construction
Completion Date: September, 2023
Client Vision
The Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center needed a purpose-built facility to support its dual focus: behavioral health treatment and infusion therapy services. Their vision was to create a modern, calming space for patients receiving treatment, with specialized areas for therapy, counseling, and infusion services. The building also had to accommodate staff workflows efficiently, ensure privacy, and meet stringent healthcare regulations.
Design & Planning
Our team worked closely with Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center to design a space that aligned with their mission of providing compassionate care in a secure and comfortable environment. We paid special attention to the following:
Patient-Centered Design: Creating a space that promotes healing and peace, with private therapy rooms, a welcoming reception area, and calming aesthetics.
Dual Service Areas: Designing separate spaces for behavioral health and infusion therapy while ensuring seamless access and workflow for staff.
Natural Light and Privacy: Incorporating large windows in common areas while ensuring patient privacy in therapy and treatment rooms, balancing openness with confidentiality.
Compliance & Safety: Designing to meet healthcare-specific building codes, such as infection control, accessibility, and safety measures in the infusion center.
Construction Process
As a ground-up build-to-suit project, this facility required starting from scratch to meet the center’s exact needs. From site preparation to the final finishes, we were involved in every phase, including:
Site Preparation & Utilities: Prepping the site for the new facility included laying groundwork, ensuring proper drainage, and installing necessary utilities to support both behavioral health and medical infusion services.
Structural Build: The building’s framework was designed with patient safety and comfort in mind, using top-tier materials that ensured durability and compliance with healthcare regulations.
Advanced Mechanical Systems: Installing specialized HVAC and air filtration systems to meet the standards required for a medical infusion center and maintaining optimal comfort for all patients.
Interior Finishes: Thoughtful use of soothing color palettes, soundproofing, and ergonomic furniture to create a welcoming, healing environment for patients.
Key Features
Private Therapy Rooms: Individual therapy rooms designed to promote patient privacy and comfort during counseling sessions.
Infusion Therapy Area: Spacious infusion rooms equipped with the latest medical technology, recliners for patient comfort, and ambient lighting to reduce stress during treatments.
Welcoming Reception and Waiting Area: The lobby was designed to be inviting and tranquil, with natural lighting, comfortable seating, and thoughtful details to put patients at ease.
Sustainable Design: High-efficiency HVAC, LED lighting, and environmentally friendly building materials to promote energy savings and sustainability.
Overcoming Challenges
Every construction project has its set of challenges, and this build was no exception. A primary challenge for the Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center was the integration of both behavioral health and medical services within one facility. We worked carefully to ensure the separation of these spaces while maintaining a cohesive flow. Additionally, supply chain delays impacted some of the specialized materials needed for the medical areas, but our project management team swiftly found alternative solutions that did not compromise on quality or timelines.
Outcome
The finished Lake Mary Behavioral and Infusion Center is a state-of-the-art facility that beautifully balances functionality and comfort. It offers a serene and welcoming environment for patients and provides staff with the space and tools they need to deliver high-quality care. The building’s layout and design reflect a deep understanding of patient-centered healthcare, ensuring that patients feel safe and cared for during their time at the center.
