Yale New-Haven Hospital expanded its pediatric emergency department to support the increasing volume of patients that use the facility, and in doing so, wanted to create an environment that puts young patients at ease. By installing noraplan environcare™ in the renovated portion of the facility, planning officials were able to achieve a bright, cheerful space that offers aesthetic benefits to patients and performance benefits to staff. Maintenance teams never have to wax or apply finish to the flooring, which saves them both time and money. The floor’s durable surface also stands up to tough hospital substances like betadine. In addition, medical staffers are experiencing the enhanced comfort nora® flooring provides, allowing them to excel at their jobs -- even in the last hour of a long shift.
