We are experts in complex regulatory and code compliance requirements.

Memorial Medical Center Vascular Operating Room Johnstown, Pennsylvania The newly completed Vascular Operating Room at Memorial Medical Center’s Clinical Pavilion provides advanced surgical capabilities with the integration of new imaging equipment. The project consisted of a complete renovation of an existing operating room with the reconfiguration of adjacent support spaces to add a new control room and equipment room. Coordination of new

imaging equipment, anesthesia booms, lighting booms and video integration drove the design of the project. The use of Revit allowed three‐dimensional, real time model coordination between JPT Architects, consulting engineers, and vendors allowing a collaborative and creative design solution.

Fulton County Medical Center Center for Advanced Medicine McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania This two story, 69,500 SF medical office building addition revitalizes the image of Fulton County Medical Center. The addition segregates outpatient services including Primary Care, Specialty Care, Cardiology, Pulmonology, Physical and Occupational Therapies with Work Hardening, Cardiac Rehab, Pediatrics, Infusion, and Behavioral Health, from the existing inpatient service areas. An easily navigated front concourse along the exterior seamlessly connects to the existing hospital where an additional 11,750 SF of renovations provide Phlebotomy, Lab, a new Express Care, Radiology and a Child Advocacy Center. A Pharmacy and Retail area as well as a Café are ideally located for patients, staff, and visitors regardless of their specific medical center destination.

Memorial Medical Center Heart Catheterization Lab Johnstown, Pennsylvania This project was designed as part of a larger renovation to relocate the Heart Catheterization Lab to a more accessible area near the Medical Facility’s entry atrium as well as centralizing pre‐post holding, physician offices, staff lockers and the family waiting area. The design created twelve more pre‐post holding areas and also doubles as an observation unit for the Emergency Department.

Mount Nittany Health BHP Steam Plant State College, Pennsylvania The new 1800 BHP steam plant will replace the building’s original equipment. Housed in a new addition to the existing plant, the design applies some of the industry’s most efficient technologies to optimize plant capacity and reduce the payback period of the new

equipment. The plant is capable of feeding through backpressure turbine for combined heat and power generation. 2N redundant power supplies and steam headers insure continual operation of the plant.

Memorial Medical Center Palliative Care Patient Unit Johnstown, Pennsylvania As part of a more comprehensive upgrade to a 42‐bed Medical/Surgical patient care floor, this new ten bed dedicated Oncology Palliative Care Unit accommodates patients and their families in a comfortable, home‐like setting while receiving specialized care to relieve pain, symptoms and stress associated with cancer and other serious illnesses.

Jordan Hospital Radiation Oncology Suite Plymouth, Massachusetts Patient circulation was carefully reconfigured to improve patient access and privacy within the existing Hospital. The renovation included a new waiting area, nurse station, segregated men and women’s dressing rooms, and an interior design for the existing vault.

Brooklyn Hospital Center Brooklyn, New York This nine‐story, 120,000 SF Medical Building addition is intended to be built onto the existing hospital facility and will also serve as the new main entrance for the hospital itself. This addition was designed with a modern and contemporary vibe, as requested by the client. On the fifth floor, there is a rooftop garden and outdoor wellness area where patients can get exposure to nature. Nature can be important to the healing process especially when you are at a hospital that is in the middle of one of the world’s largest cities.

JPT strives to keep in mind the patient’s needs while simultaneously creating building environments that are conducive to healing, productivity, and staff efficiency. These environments are directly responsive in layout and function, while also fitting‐out to our clients’ business plans and goals.

OSTICS

We have a 1% change order rate ‐ a testament to our reliability and accuracy.

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia King of Prussia, Pennsylvania This new MRI at Philadelphia Children’s Hospital was designed to reduce child sedation. Colorful floor tiles, soft lighting, and the unique ceiling feature “Sacred Passages” (Vara Kamin Impressions of Light Inc.) were incorporated to help young patients relax during their treatment. New electrical and HVAC infrastructure was required for the installation of a new Siemens Vero 3.0T. Construction was completed without interruption to the facility’s daily operations. We used engaging room design and distraction techniques to comfort the pediatric MRI patients.

“Less sedation for

pediatric MRI

procedures for the

first year of use.”

This drop increased capacity, as well as allowing the MRI service line to increase scans by 15% over that same period of time. Meanwhile, both parents and staff reported higher levels of satisfaction in reducing stress levels for them and the children.

Blair Medical Associates Nuclear Medicine Suite Altoona, Pennsylvania Upon completion of the Master planning for a former retail shopping mall into a major outpatient medical mall, JPT designed this Nuclear Medicine Suite for Cardiology studies that include stress tests.

The Hot Lab and Tech work area are efficiently located adjacent to the camera while the patient has easy access into the suite from a waiting area shared with the affiliated Cardiology Center.

Mount Nittany Health Pain Management Center State College, Pennsylvania The Pain Management Center is an off‐campus facility operated by Mount Nittany Medical Center. With imaging, laboratory, pain management and other specialties located within, the Blue Course Drive facility offers comprehensive, coordinated care ‐ all in one convenient location.

There is a dedicated vehicular drop‐off canopy that leads to a central patient waiting and reception area.

From this central point, all patients are circulated to the various components. Outpatient imaging includes MRI, Radiology, and Ultrasound suites. Pain Management includes exam and procedure rooms with private pre/post recovery rooms.

“The project scope and timeframe was ambitious and required significant planning and coordination which JPT executed flawlessly.”

Mr. Dave Davies – CEO University Orthopedics Center

Fulton County Medical Center McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania

This two‐story addition links clinical specialty services and suites for visiting physicians with the existing one‐story hospital. Included in the project are alterations to the existing PT/OT space and a new cardiac rehab/wellness center. The second floor brings together MIS, billing and accounting departments which were previously scattered in leased spaces throughout the community.

Conemaugh Physicians Group Cardiology Center Johnstown, Pennsylvania JPT designed the Cardiology Center with an emphasis on patient convenience and quality of experience. The reception and waiting area is spacious and affords views of the river, the city, and the surrounding mountains.

Pediatric Clinic and Child Advocacy Center

Mount Nittany Health – State College, Pennsylvania

While access to specially trained pediatricians was important for the CAC, so was security and the need to maintain the highest level of privacy for victims of abuse. Additionally, the Pediatric side had to be opening, welcoming, and create a playful and exciting environment.

JPT met these design challenges by providing two separate entrances with secure interior passages between the separate functions. Colors, shapes, and lighting were selected based on their appeal to children, and to soften the experience of a doctor visit.

Mount Nittany Medical Center/Hershey Medical Center Medical Sciences Building II State College, Pennsylvania This proposed three‐story, 100,000 SF Medical Office Building is to consolidate existing outpatient services and further development of schematic plans for a 15,000 SF Medical Oncology component on the second floor. The design for this Medical Office Building included an open Lobby, Lab, Radiology, Allergy Clinic and the new Primary Medical Suite for Penn State Family Medicine on the main entrance level, as well as various dominoes throughout the building. Each suite entrance is visible from the large lobby and marked clearly with color coded signage to improve wayfinding. The new clinic features a front/back exam design, where patient and staff circulation are separated to improve patient privacy and staff efficiency.

UPMC Logan Medical Building Altoona, Pennsylvania JPT Architects was the Owner’s Representative for this three‐story, 91,000SF Medical Office Building that is used as partial lease space and suite for UPMC Medical System, including Radiology and Imaging Services.

Station Medical Center Medical Office Building Altoona, Pennsylvania The two‐story, 64,000 SF Outpatient Center included a 10,000 SF addition to consolidate seven hospital departments into an Outpatient Center with Physical Therapy, and several Physician Office Clinics. The Station Medical Center included sky lights and clerestory windows to introduce natural light into the treatment areas and as a way‐finding mechanism. Suites are accessible from the main entrance and secondary entrances used for branding.

University Orthopedics Surgery Center State College, Pennsylvania Challenge: University Orthopedics Center had 3 high volume Operating Rooms that the PA Department of Health deemed non‐compliant with current standards and threatened closure unless immediate action was taken.

Design Solution: JPT fast‐tracked comprehensive Mechanical Design including Architectural aesthetic upgrades and DOH point of contact for Owner concerns, providing Construction/ Permit and DOH compliance documents in just 4 weeks.

Construction Solution: JPT provided an immediate cost effective design resolution for new equipment requirements including added weight considerations on this 2 story facility. Operating Room down time was minimized at the 26,750 SF first floor by working around the clock continuously for 4 weeks with double shifts in conjunction with scheduled surgeon’s vacations. The second floor remained fully operational while the lower level existing mechanical and ceiling systems were removed and replaced in their entirety. DOH and Local Occupancy permits were obtained 3 days ahead of schedule.

University Orthopedics Center Altoona, Pennsylvania University Orthopedics retained JPT to design their new Altoona Medical Office Building within a former retail mall.

The patient and staff areas were organized to be separated but

connected through the reception and discharge areas. Patients receiving exams, x‐rays and physical therapy share the common lobby waiting area and move to the separate spaces for their treatment.

Fulton County Medical Center

Altoona Ophthalmology Associates Altoona, Pennsylvania This new Eye Clinic was designed for a group of four Physicians, one of whom is a pediatric specialist. The plan segregates his pediatric patients from general patient care, most of whom are senior citizens.

The Optical department was planned for easy access to increase retail sales and includes different gender and age displays as well as a full ocular lab.

Mount Nittany Health Family Medicine Practice Reedsville, Pennsylvania The core of the facility is Mount Nittany Physician Group’s Family Medicine Practice with Cardiology, General Surgery and Urology anticipated to join the practice in the near future. At present roughly one half of the building’s available space has been renovated.

Upon entering the building, visitors are welcomed in the lobby, a space with high ceilings and plenty of natural light from the overhead windows. An abundant use of wood paneling and a palette of vibrant interior finishes were selected to create a positive patient experience.

Oncology JPT’s specialized planning expertise and comprehensive design experience allows us to create facilities that are extremely functional while remaining economically feasible.

In the same manner, we strive to create aesthetically pleasing facilities while fostering an environment of care and well‐being for the patient, which has resulted in a remarkable 90% repeat client base.

Premier Urology Cranford, New Jersey This Radiology Oncology Urology Center was a design‐build project with Phoenix Medical Construction. The design allows for both the urology and rad/onc practices to operate independently of each other

while sharing a common waiting room and reception/discharge services. Components include traditional linac and tomotherapy vaults, CT simulator, pathology lab, staff support spaces, research and conference rooms, and exam rooms for both practices.

Clients turn to JPT for solutions they can trust.

Garden State Urology Center Whippany, New Jersey This two‐story Urology Center was a design‐build

project with Phoenix Medical Construction.

Designed to sensitively segregate patient gender usage of the Linear Accelerator and CT/Simulator as well as provide an efficient plan for operating out of the exam rooms. The second floor includes a large conference/training room, pathology lab and office, billing offices and staff lounge.

Newburyport Radiation Oncology Center Anna Jaques Hospital, Newburyport, Massachusetts The goal of this project was to provide an outpatient Radiation Research Center within a new medical office building on the Anna Jaques Hospital campus. The new design includes a linear accelerator vault, CT/simulator and exam rooms for patient treatment. The staff component provides offices, a conference room, and staff break room in an easily accessible yet segregated area.

Urology Specialists of West Florida

Clearwater, Florida

Offering linear accelerator and computed tomography simulation, the Urology Radiation Oncology center consolidates three urology specialist groups into a prominent corner property in Florida’s central gulf coast. The building’s exterior was transformed from an existing 1970’s circa façade into a cutting‐ edge, modern façade.

Mount Nittany Medical Center Linear Accelerator State College, Pennsylvania JPT designed the recently constructed Linear Accelerator Suite for Mount Nittany Medical Center, State College, PA. The project was a renovation of their original Linear Accelerator located within the medical center’s main hospital. The new Varian TrueBeam Linear Accelerator required upgraded electrical conduit carefully routed thru existing walls and structural floor slab, additional primary barrier shielding, new casework and a new shielded vault door. Patients now receive their external beam radiation cancer treatment in a state of the art suite that is more appropriate visually and more accommodating for staff providing treatment.

Heart Catheterization Lab Master Planning, CMMC Johnstown, Pennsylvania As part of a larger Master Plan for the Conemaugh Memorial Medical Center, the 20,000 SF Heart Catheterization Lab was designed to incorporate Evidence Based Design components to lessen patient anxiety and provide an efficient healing environment.

Station Medical Mall Master Plan Altoona, Pennsylvania This Master Plan was developed to convert a 220,000 SF former retail mall into hospital outpatient services and supporting healthcare related entities.

The existing structure has proved ideal for its new use due to its strategic location and inherent spatial accommodation of intended program use.

JPT has also designed several of the suite components proposed in this Master Plan document.

DESIGN/

Design / Construct What sets JPT apart from other designers and contractors is our comprehensive team

of healthcare design and construction professionals under one roof. Having both entities under one roof eliminates communication problems between designers and contractors, providing the best of both worlds for clients.

/CONSTRUCT

We specialize in architectural and engineering design and planning for the healthcare industry.

The one certainty we have in healthcare is that change will happen. It will come at different rates of intensity and magnitudes of order. As healthcare architects and constructors we are continuously challenged with the need to balance current and immediate priorities, including costs, with the consequence of this inevitable change.

Healthcare is changing in fundamental ways.

Healthcare providers will be building thousands of structures — building, re‐building, re‐purposing, and infilling for new and shifting purposes.

What is the future of Healthcare?

What’s the process that works through this complexity?

How are you going to build it?

Every building must meet its purpose!

You are building for highly complex purposes in a rapidly changing demographics, clinical and business environment — and you want those environments to continue to be useful for decades into the future.

Answering these questions, and constructing the solutions in a building, can be a difficult and complicated process, even for most health care systems. Frankly, many architects do not know how to do it at all.

This is where JPT excels. Our firm can help you navigate these complexities and come out with a customized plan for your healthcare facility.

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia King of Prussia, Pennsylvania

We used engaging room design and distraction techniques to comfort the pediatric MRI patients. In turn, this led to less need for sedation, shorter wait times, and a higher satisfaction rating.

What we did: Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHoP) desired to replace a 1.5T MRI and replace with new 3.0T MRI equipment. As part of the new design and their functional process, they wished to utilize less sedation for children. Research was conducted to ascertain the most effective imagery for children to keep them engaged in thought.

Based on this research, CHoP introduced a program that uses various techniques to distract and engage patients, and multisensory elements, such as imagery, music, and videos.

How it paid off: The program is successful, resulting in 89% less sedation for pediatric MRI procedures the first year of use. This drop increased capacity, as well as allowing the MRI service line to increase scans by 15% over that same period of time. Meanwhile, both parents and staff reported higher levels of satisfaction in reducing stress levels for them and the children.
