We know you have a choice. We are honored that you choose ACMC.” —Michael Habowski, ACMC Healthcare System President and CEO Better for everyone Teams of ACMC caregivers were engaged to help determine aspects of the design and room layout. Rooms in the new tower are being designed around workflows, not the other way around. New technology was incorporated in the plans that will allow caregivers to spend more time at the bedside with patients. And several additional safety measures—in direct patient care and in everyday operations of the building—were included. “We chose the theme ‘Advancing Healthcare: Today and Tomorrow’ for this project. It is a theme that pays tribute to our past, recognizes what we do today and promises what we will do tomorrow,” Habowski said. “To all our communities, we say thank you for entrusting us with your care. We know you have a choice. We are honored that you choose ACMC.” 2024 ACMC Pulse • acmchealth.org 5
