    Leading Change – A Vision and an Opportunity for a New Urban Birth Center. The journey (so far) of leading change for vision, culture, and space congruence.

    HealthPartners Regions Hospital is developing a multi-story, 150,000 square-foot building, with two floors dedicated to the Birth Center. After relocating from the existing facility in 2020, the Birth Center will see a substantial increase from the current setting in patient room key functional areas, which are designed specifically to better accommodate patient, family, and staff engagement and care model best practices.  This ongoing, deep-dive case study follows the journey (so far) and documents the processes involved with leading change in a department's culture in preparation for a new facility. 

    This course has also been approved for 1.0 hour of EDAC continuing education units (CEUs).
