Walkthrough checklist

  1. Make a schedule of fixed and portable equipment and note where each will actually be used.
  2. Overlay service routes and outlets on the furniture drawings before approving joinery.
  3. Keep shutoffs and frequently serviced connections reachable and have the relevant specialist verify the provision.
Worked example

Imagine a bed location changing to improve caregiver access, leaving a call control and charging point on the far side of the room.

Overlay the bed, aid and care workflow before relocating connections. Keep call controls reachable from the resident's position and ask qualified trades to verify power and communication provisions.

How to test it

Check locations against the final furniture and appliance drawings before walls or cabinets are closed.

Trade-off
More stations increase appointment capacity but reduce stylist working room.
