Tips for Using the Medical Office Layout Template for Microsoft Visio

• Keep in mind the space doors and cabinets need to open and close. Measure the distance needed from door frames and cabinet fronts to ensure easy access and functionality, and be sure to include this space in the layout.
• Use the virtual rooms as an aide for purchasing new furniture or equipment. Get the dimensions of a piece before ordering and use the template to ensure the new equipment will fit the space available.
• Be careful to measure furniture at its widest point. Many pieces are larger at the top than the bottom. Always use the item’s largest dimensions in planning to ensure the actual moving of furniture goes smoothly.

Placing medical equipment and furniture in tiny exam rooms in ways that are both functional and esthetically pleasing can be a daunting task. Simplify the planning process and reduce the potential for mistakes with the Medical Office Layout Template for Microsoft Visio.
