Challenge:
A professional dental hygiene college faced the pressing need to modernize its facilities and equipment to foster a more stimulating and encouraging learning environment for its students. The existing infrastructure was no longer adequate to meet the evolving educational standards and requirements of a modern dental hygiene program. The college aimed to create a space that would not only facilitate cutting-edge dental training but also inspire and engage their students in a dynamic learning process.
The Solution:
To address this challenge, Decca Design developed a comprehensive plan for a new 4000 square foot (Check) facility. This state-of-the-art learning lab was meticulously designed to include a range of essential features: fully equipped learning operatories, a laboratory, and sterilization facilities, all critical for hands-on training in dental hygiene. Additionally, the facility encompassed locker areas for student convenience, a reception area to facilitate learning days with public interaction, a classroom setting for theoretical instruction, and dedicated office space for faculty. The design of each space was carefully considered to ensure functionality, enhance the learning experience, and foster a professional atmosphere. The integration of modern technology and ergonomic design in the operatories and lab areas particularly aimed to simulate a real-world dental office environment, preparing students for their future careers in dental hygiene.
RODI Results:
The new facility significantly elevated the learning experience at the college, creating an environment conducive to both practical training and academic growth. This investment in infrastructure and technology not only enhanced the college’s reputation as a leading institution for dental hygiene education but also opened doors to future growth opportunities. By providing a modern, well-equipped space, Decca Design played a pivotal role in shaping the next generation of dental hygiene professionals.
