Manning Family Children’s Modernization and Expansion
A decade in the making, Manning Family Children’s and Page partnered to transform the state’s leading pediatric facility into a fully modernized, comprehensive health campus. A clear and rigorous 34-phase plan ensured continuous operations throughout construction, requiring innovative scheduling, heightened safety measures, progressive wayfinding, and extensive collaboration with the hospital, contractor, and community.
Visitors are welcomed by a striking entrance and glass-enclosed sky bridge leading to the Lauricella Pavilion—a new front door that enhances wayfinding and instills confidence in the quality of care. Inside, the vibrant, two-story lobby serves as an inviting “living room,” designed for comfort and engagement. Interactive game stations, noise-reducing acoustics, and colorful digital signage create an uplifting space for families, patients, and staff.
