Monday, we found out something that completely changed the direction our inboard patient room floor plan was headed. We were told that the nurse servers need a pass-through and the W.O.W. needs a place to sit in the room without being in the way.
Tuesday, we met with an Infection Control representative who used to be an RN, and she gave us plenty of good insights. She said the nurse servers and W.O.W.'s don't need to be in the room all of the time, so we are not planning on them having a designated spot in the room anymore.
Wednesday, the wood laminate samples came in the mail. We mixed and matched the samples to figure out the most soothing/harmonious combination. While doing so, we discovered that darker wood finishes show fingerprints tremendously more than lighter wood, but the lighter wood shows scuffs more easily. It's sort of a trade-off. Would we rather see fingerprints on the cabinets all the time or have an occasional scuff that can be eliminated with each cleaning.
Thursday I continued to work in Google Sketchup while Bridget and Christen started translating our data into visuals.
Friday was fun. We met at Christin's house instead of the office because our boss was out of the office and 2/3 of us live closer to the north side of town. It was nice to sleep in. We did our work while watching the Olympics. I started working in 3DS Max again while Christin and Bridget continued to work on visualizing our insights.
Only 1 more week to go!
