Florida outpatient center designed with Lean principles

Lee Memorial Health System builds its first Lean-designed facility


Lee Memorial Health System builds its new outpatient facility in Coral Gables, Fla., with Lean principles, a first for the organization, according to an article on the Health Facility Management website.

The new Lee Physician Group’s Outpatient Center, a 27,400-square-foot facility, was also designed for flexibility, adaptability and expansion capabilities. 

The project team created a structural design that maximizes workflow and patient care. They held workshops with staff to simulate flow for patient, provider, information and materials.
