Floyd Valley Healthcare in Le Mars, Iowa, responding to rising outpatient services, commissioned CMBA Architects for a $2 million, 5,000-square-foot OB expansion. Market research revealed a substantial loss of local OB patients to neighboring facilities, prompting a revamp. The ambitious project relocates the OB department to an underutilized segment, introducing spacious Labor, Delivery, Recovery and Postpartum (LDRP) rooms—ensuring patients remain undisturbed post-delivery. These modernized rooms blend care and comfort seamlessly, with concealed med-gases and power outlets, evoking a hospitality ambiance to bolster recovery. With construction set to commence late 2023, completion is eagerly anticipated by 2024.
