FEATURED HEALTH CARE PROJECTS
VETERANS ADMINISTRATION MEDICAL CENTER COMMUNITY LIVING CENTER RENOVATIONS AND ADDITION, WASHINGTON DC
The Community Living Center is a 120 bed facility that houses a rehabilitation unit, long term care, and hospice and palliative care, within the shed from the second floor to the U.S. Capitol Building. The VAMC DC site encompasses 34.67 acres, and the total area of structures is 1,520,012 gross square feet. The project shall addresses the addition of a new, 9,133 square foot hospice wing on the existing second floor exterior roof terrace, of which approximately 4,800 square feet will extend south, over the site, with a stairwell to the grade below. The project includes the renovation of 51,800 square feet of existing space. The design eliminates five quad occupancy resident bedrooms and converts them into multipurpose lounges. The addition will include one HOME with 11 hospice resident bedrooms and required supporting areas. The design organization aim is to consolidate the image of an integrated COMMUNITY CENTER, identifying common pathways to facilitate and encourage social interaction. In order to design the most suitable environments for resident care, it is important that the design organization clearly identifies the relationships between the individual WINGS/HOUSES and the COMMUNITY CENTER.

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION MEDICAL CENTER ONCOLOGY, ENDOCRONOLOGY AND SLEEP THERAPY, BALTIMORE, MD
These three new Suites will serve an increasing out-patient demand. In the Oncology suite the existing open infusion stations will be replaced with 12 new stations including one private station, one isolation station, and 10 semi-private stations. This arrangement is flexible giving the patients the options of controlling their spce to be open, or semiprivate, this will provide a higher level of privacy and comfort while patients receive their treatment. The nurse station will be situated to provide direct visual contact to all infusion patients during treatment. Patient Centric Care principles have be incorporated in the design. The Sleep Lab, housing the Sleep Study and EMG / EEG departments, will be expanded. The size of the sleep study rooms and number of toilet / shower rooms will be augmented to better serve patients’ needs and privacy. A dedicated waiting area and centrally located monitoring room will allow for streamlined patient check-in while a new office / consultation room allows for a more efficient operation and serves the joint needs of the Sleep Study and EMG / EEG departments. This Suite has been designed in accordance with American Academy of Sleep Medicine accreditation requirements.

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION MEDICAL CENTER URGENT CARE CLINIC AND PRIMARY CARE CENTER, Perry Point, MD
This major renovation will restructure the Primary Care Clinic applying current medical best practices, using the Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) Model. The functional layout includes the Primary Care functions, various Specialty Care functions, as well as the Urgent Care Clinic all located in Building 361 on the Perry Point campus. The renovated UCC will provide separate and secure mental health holding and screening areas to address both safety and privacy needs. The PACT Space Module represents a significant change in VA’s approach to the environment of care for the delivery of Primary Care Services to our Nation’s Veterans. VA’s transformation of care to PACT, a Veteran-centric, medical home model of care, required a new space planning and design paradigm. This New facility contains planning and design concepts that support the patient centered care delivered and illustrates concepts for creating functional, efficient, nurturing, pleasing, and adaptable environments for our Nation’s Veterans, as well as those who serve and honor the Veteran patients. 20,000 S.F.

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION MEDICAL CENTER PSYCHOSOCIAL RESIDENTIAL REHABILITATION TREATMENT PROGRAM (RRTP), Perry Point, MD
The goal of this project is to renovate BLDG 364 to accommodate the newly approved Mental Health Residential Rehabilitation Treatment Program (RRTP). The existing space within unit 364B served as locked inpatient psychiatry STAR unit. The new RRTP will treat these Veterans in a much less restrictive and more recovery-oriented environment. Unit 364B will be renovated to accommodate this new program creating a more home-like residential environment departing from the current institutional feel of the existing space. In serving as a transformational resource, this Renovation is intended to help advance a new treatment paradigm in inpatient psychiatry and residential and outpatient settings that emphasizes recovery, rather than symptom monitoring and stabilization, for patients with even the most severe mental illnesses. This new design approach is being implemented throughout the Veterans Health Administration and represents a significant departure from traditional approaches to mental health facility design. 20,000 S.F. www.mimarch.net

RESEARCH LABORATORIES RENOVATIONS PHASE III, WASHINGTON D.C.
Responding to the trend for updated research laboratories and internal demands to improve space utilization, efficiency, and to meet current research requirements the Medical Center is renovating building #4. The extents of the project include the renovation of 5200 sf. of existing BSL-1 into BSL -2 research laboratories. The Current laboratories do not meet Bio Safety Requirements, resulting in the high probability of cross contamination of work migrating between rooms. The new laboratories will be a total overhaul of the existing spaces introducing new lab configurations, from small inefficient spaces to larger more efficient laboratories. The laboratory casework will be a highly flexible modular and movable system that can be modified to meet future needs or changes in research focus. Safety features such as providing two means of egress from each laboratory, the proper placement of fume hoods and bio safety laminar hoods, as well as the proper locations for acid pour off stations, eyewash and emergency shower stations will be addressed. The buildings pressure map will also be brought into alignment to allow for the proper containment of the laboratories.

The challenge is to create a richer setting for human interaction.” Gregory Ninow AIA Vice-President
