Citizen’s Memorial Healthcare Dermatology Clinic

Paragon was enlisted to assist Citizen’s Memorial Hospital, a fully-integrated healthcare system, with the interior renovation of a Dermatology Clinic at their existing Bolivar facility.  The project took an existing, unused clinic on the CMH campus and completely reworked the layout to improve patient flow and privacy, add up-to-date staffing and support areas, and accommodate expansion for future growth.  It is located adjacent to existing diagnostic services, which reduces time for test results and increases staff efficiency.  Ultimately, this project brought back dermatology services to the list of CMH’s service lines in the Bolivar community.  Dermatology services provide much needed support to an aging community and the nearby hospital.

The newly renovated space for Dermatology Services makes way for two providers with multiple exam and procedure rooms, screening and diagnostic services, and room for expansion as needs arise.  The space now has a spa-like feel, with a welcoming entryway, reception, and waiting area, clean and modern finishes throughout, state of the art equipment, and retail display case for specialized treatment products.  The design was successful in adhering to, and reinterpreting CMH’s brand standards, as the lighter color palette and finishes are more “spa like” and less “clinical” for dermatology clients.  With the room and ability to expand, CMH and the design team also prepared an expansion plan for renovating the rest of the building with future provider(s) and expansion of cancer screening services in the coming years.
