Slidell Memorial Hospital is a 229-bed acute care hospital located in the heart of Slidell, Louisiana, part of the New Orleans metropolitan area. Opened in 1959, the community-based hospital is all about the patient—a place where leaders have adopted the saying, “Feel better faster,” as they work to get patients into beds, healed and on their way home as quickly and safely as possible.
noraplan environcare™ premium rubber flooring from nora systems, Inc. covers much of the three-story facility, offering durability and slip resistance. According to Anita Becker, director of critical care services, it also supports a quiet, healing environment. “Quiet is something we take very seriously, because there’s a lot of literature that supports the fact that quiet time is paramount for patient recovery…Something that contributes to that and helps would be our flooring system. You don’t hear the footsteps. You don’t hear the cart going down the hallway…Because all of that is absorbed through the floor.”
Just as significant, the floor contributes to that all-important first impression visitors and patients have as they enter the hospital. “It might not matter what type of care you provide,” says Anita Becker, director of critical care services. “If the environment is not right when they walk in the door, then you’ve already done a disservice to your families.” Easy-to-maintain nora flooring consistently looks good and regularly supports the hospital’s commitment to compassionate care and a patient-centered culture. Adds Singley, “Installing nora is just all around the right thing to do to heal the patient.”
According to Jeffrey Singley, director, with responsibility for environmental services, nora is an integral part of the hospital’s master facility plan to keep the building up-to-date and improve its efficiency based, in part, on the successful installation of nora flooring in the hospital’s intensive care unit (ICU) more than 10 years ago. “Today,” says Singley, “the floor is proven, it’s working…and there are no issues. It’s seamless.”
