Orthopaedic Associates, Albany, GA

From the Challenges to the Results...

With over 43 years of serving the Albany, Georgia community, Orthopaedic Associates was not only in the market for a new building, but also for a space that enhanced the patient experience.

According to Cheryl Boyles, CEO, "We wanted something that wasn’t the usual traditional, rectangular brick building that is usually found in the Albany area." Another challenge for Orthopaedic Associates was to seamlessly house all their services under one roof while providing excellent patient flow and comfort.

With a variety of spaces and specialties to accommodate, the company proved that a mix of National products such as Casbah, WaveWorks, Eloquence, Fuel and more would best serve their desired flow and function while seamlessly transitioning from conference and break rooms to reception and waiting areas as well as private offices and administrative spaces with aesthetic and functional ease.

"The thing we were so taken with was the look of National. It represented the look we wanted," says Boyles. "And the Installation went great. There was no damage and everything showed up on time. We just had a great experience." The firm also appreciated that National products feature sustainable elements including many that are indoor air quality certified to create healthier environments.

Orthopaedic Associates studied their patient flow for over five years as it wasn’t just about the footprint, it was visually communicating comfort and confidence as well. Furniture selection was critical to the design’s success.

National’s focus on healthcare solutions including attributes like bleach washable finishes, performance fabrics and bariatric seating models provided the aesthetic appeal and durability the company envisioned for their various applications and visual goals.

"It was very important that we improved the patient experience, because after all, it’s all about the patient," Boyles added. With a 100% improvement in efficiency and a building and interior that truly reflects their vision, Orthopaedic Associates and National look forward to serving the Albany area for the next 43 years.

The facility features National’s Clever Casegoods, EnvyWorks Casegoods, WaveWorks Casegoods & Tables, General Purpose Tables, Eloquence Occasional Tables, Myriad Occasional Tables, Fuel Seating, Mix-it Seating, Result Seating, Tag Seating, Timberlane Seating, Eloquence Lounge Seating and Reno Lounge Seating.
