Universal/Adaptable Patient Headwall Prototype
Department of Veterans Affairs, VA Construction and Facilities Management

Washington, D.C.

Project Scope: Develop a universal patient headwall prototype for VA enterprise-wide utilization. The prototype will eliminate uncertainty and the potential for incorrect layout of headwall fixtures and outlets. FFE developed custom magnetic walls with accurate scale for interactive CFM/VHA test fit workshops. This methodology ensured clinical staff could easily visualize configurations of headwall components, resulting in a final design proven by clinical staff.
