Briefing

The project included a 73,000-square-foot hospital expansion featuring 50,000 square feet of new finished space and 23,000 square feet of renovated space. The expansion enhanced several outpatient specialties, including neurology, cardiology, and pulmonology, with 16,500 square feet of new space dedicated to the Children’s Center for Health and Wellness.

Additional improvements included new patient isolation rooms, an endoscopy suite for gastrointestinal services, expanded infusion areas, and additional operating rooms. The project also incorporated 22,500 square feet of shell space to accommodate future growth.

ASC Equipment provided seismic engineering, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and vibration isolation solutions for the hospital’s mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems and equipment.
