Lawrence Group has recently completed the design of a new behavioral health inpatient clinic on the 5th floor of Bordley Tower at the original St. Louis University Hospital site.
The new inpatient facility employs high-finish, biophilic design elements and custom murals to create a healing atmosphere for patients and caregivers alike. Each patient room includes a private bathroom connected by a custom magnetic partition, while furnishings and fixtures typical of behavioral health facilities were selected to support the project’s overall aesthetic vision. Nurse stations are strategically located to offer expansive coverage across the facility’s color-coded wings, ensuring efficient observation and support can be provided to patients while affording a degree of privacy throughout the clinic.
The new Behavioral Health Inpatient Clinic at Bordley Tower thoughtfully repurposes aging infrastructure into a new cutting edge facility, reflecting SSM Health’s ongoing commitment to advancing the accessibility and availability of mental health resources in the St. Louis region,
