Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford Expansion
Palo Alto, CA
Overview
Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford is in the process of creating America’s most technologically advanced, family-friendly, and environmentally sustainable hospital for babies, children, and pregnant women. The expansion, set to open in 2017, adds 521,000 sf of building space and 149 patient beds. Six new surgical suites, a nuclear medicine department, three new imaging units, four diagnostic units including a cardiac “hybrid” angiography suite, and more than 3.5 acres of healing gardens and green space are designed into the project.

Behind the Walls
The hospital will enclose over 3.5 acres of gardens, where Movie Night in the Emerald Garden will be held on warm evenings. Thanks to an entertainment system of TEECOM’s design, with a huge inflatable movie screen, patients, visitors, and families will be able to view movies from the lawn in rows of terraced seating.
