Guest guest Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Group, I am looking for some suggestions on how many sq/ft I should plan for our current outpatient PT department to move. There are plans being developed to move us into a newly constructee building, and I would like to plan accordingly for growth. I have an outpatient PT department staffed by 4.2 FTEs which is " off sight " from the hospital. We also cover inpatient visits at our hospital facility, but these patient treatments will continue to be seen in the hospital. We do an average of 350 outpatient visits/month and 1250 oupatient units/month. These are primarily orthopedic patients with a smattering of peds, geriatrics, etc. We have seen a growth in our outpatient business of 13%-15% each year in units/visits, and I expect this growth to slow to 5%-7% in the next few years with an increase in staff of another full FTE within this next year. We currently have 3325 sq/ft with 3 treatment rooms in our outpatient department and we are feeling " cramped " in this area. Any suggestions on total square footage, # of treatment rooms, gym space size, storage, etc. would be appreciated. thanks in advance for advice.
