The design process for Altru Health System's new hospital has been meticulously guided by five core principles that prioritize patient care and community needs. Throughout the development, a series of workshops, meetings, and mock-ups were conducted to ensure that the vision was aligned with the expectations of both healthcare professionals and the community.

Emphasizing accessibility, the design aims to create a welcoming environment that enhances the overall patient experience. Sustainability was also a key consideration, with plans to incorporate eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient systems.
In addition to focusing on patient care, the design emphasizes the importance of staff efficiency and comfort. By integrating advanced technology and thoughtful design elements, the new hospital is set to improve workflow and enhance the quality of care provided.
