    Staff at M Health Fairview St. John’s Hospital in Maplewood, Minnesota have faced a 5% rise in inpatient visits and a 12% increase in ED visits since 2022. With limited space, and a commitment to improve patient care while visits are only expected to grow, St. John’s staff improved patient flow by expanding the emergency department, reorganizing existing services and – now – opening a new short-stay and observation unit.

    The 16-bed unit was realized using prefabrication construction techniques in collaboration with construction firm The Boldt Company, and interdisciplinary design firm, HGA. The unit was built to over 90% completion offsite in Appleton, Wisconsin then transported and installed on the St. John’s Hospital campus – the first of its kind in the state of Minnesota.
