At JOTMedical, we understand focussing on the patient, and patient care, needs to drive the design of healthcare spaces. We tailor the healthcare design and healthcare systems for the facility based on your specific medical or healthcare field and care provided, but always prioritizing human health and patient experience.
Our designers build patient safety, patient needs, and patient care considerations right into the facility design. They also know that the needs and experience of your staff involved in valuable healthcare delivery and support staff is also essential. We are industry leaders in innovation, with designers who address these considerations and many others. We address the perspectives of all people who use the facility, balancing their needs carefully, and integrating them into an attractive, cohesive design and floor plan.

Key Design Focus
At JOTMedical, our designs aim to optimize patient experiences, functionality and streamlined operations, infection prevention and control, accessibility, safety, sustainability, and security.
We create enticing and practical layouts to address all of these elements. We aim to create dynamic spaces that are accessible to all; they support good work processes and are flexible enough to meet changing needs. They support optimal health care and improvement in health outcomes, while being relaxing and comfortable for patients.
Our Process
We listen carefully, to fully understand your vision and needs, and develop innovative solutions to your challenges. We use our experience to guide you on considerations you may not have thought of. We are mindful of healthcare costs in design. Our designs improve operational efficiency and patient care.
We address all of your practical considerations, including ventilation, infection control, plumbing and electrical systems, ergonomics, noise control, and more, through careful layouts, choices of materials, and other design choices.
We select and use only high quality surfaces and finishes. We use specialty materials, such as bacteria-resistant ones, for your project. Our skilled healthcare design team combines glasswork, stainless steel, and millwork and other design features seamlessly to create a design that is both beautiful and highly functional.
Expertise in Designing for All Healthcare Facilities
JOTMedical can help in attractive, optimal designs, whether you are building or renovating a seniors health center, medical clinic, hospital, pediatric clinic, ambulatory care facility, or any other type of healthcare facility. We can create a modern, innovative healthcare design that creates solutions to your challenges, whatever your facility.
Research Facilities and Areas
Our designs for research facilities ensure adequate ventilation and isolation systems for safety and sterility. Ergonomic and efficient layouts will make work more efficient. We can address your technical requirements and equipment needs, while creating a pleasant, optimal work environment.
Many hospitals and clinics now integrate these areas within their facility; we ensure research areas are incorporated safely and efficiently, without impacting patient care, and creating intuitive layouts for optimized work processes. Our designers aim to promote collaboration on research projects.
Medicenters and Clinics
The JOTMedical team can provide you with an expert healthcare clinic or medical office design that encourages positive patient outcomes. We tailor your design to your specific services offered, and skillfully coordinate multi-use facilities.
Hospitals
As hospitals become increasingly specialized, and many involve long-term treatment, we can create a healthcare design to make your facility as comfortable as possible for patients and families. From combining operating or exam rooms with patient rooms, to providing more patient control over their room environment, we can improve patient experience without negatively impacting budget or staff work. We can also design for more single-patient rooms, even with limited space, to improve infection control. We are acutely aware of infection control and other needs of the hospital environment.
Seniors and Ambulatory Care Centers
Our healthcare design for your facility caring for seniors and other care centers can include general areas for caregivers and safety features throughout, such as fall prevention flooring, optimally placed rails, and more.
Pediatric Centers
Age-appropriate and treatment-appropriate designs include carefully selected colour schemes, natural light, interactive technology, and other features to create a positive environment and optimal support for your work.
Mental Health Services
We innovatively create designs that can coordinate a clinical support center strategically to enable patient observation and improve efficiency and safety. Creating access to nature, calming colour palettes, and other techniques will be skillfully employed.
Community Areas
Single-patient rooms improve patient safety and infection control, but to avoid feelings of isolation, community areas become more necessary.
Spaces for connection, community, education and socializing, and for families to visit more easily are increasingly common, especially for senior living centers, to improve mental health. Your healthcare design plan could also include public spaces for groups in nearby communities to gather, to bring vibrancy to your facility. Family accommodations can also be incorporated.
Other Healthcare Services
We can design for a wide variety of healthcare services and facilities, protecting privacy, creating welcoming, safer, and more productive environments.
Healthcare Design Compliance to Standards
Our healthcare designs follow legislation and standards and best practices for superior results. We design to comply with Canadian Standard Association (CSA) standard, CSA Z8000, Canadian Healthcare Facilities–Planning, Design, and Construction.
Improving Health Outcomes
Our superior healthcare design plans can improve patient health outcomes, by enhancing patient care, contributing positively to mental health, and creating healthier, more efficient places.
Designs With a Patient Focus
Improving patient experience improves expected outcomes. Providing windows and natural lighting, control over room features, privacy, noise control, and a welcoming environment is known to improve recovery; we create designs to leverage this.
Designs to Increase Efficiency
As experts in healthcare design, we create the most efficient layout to increase productivity, with an effective, intuitive workflow, so you can do more with less, and focus more on patients.
Designs to Support Hygiene
Our designers create plans to allow for hygiene and infection control. Bacteria-resistant furnishings and washable, hygienic materials like stainless steel for surfaces are used throughout.
