US$45 million Investment Expands Patient Care at Pullman Regional Hospital in Washington, USA
Introduction:
The Pullman Regional Hospital plans to invest US$45 million to remodel and expand patient care.
Features:
The design incorporates expanded surgical facilities to accommodate more surgical specialities, allowing patients to access a wider range of surgical options within the local area.
Additionally, it features augmented emergency patient capacity and offers increased flexibility through additional flex space. Moreover, specialised behavioural health patient rooms in a secure environment are included to ensure safety. The design also accounts for future expansion and seamless integration with a new medical office building.
The comprehensive five-phase project includes both the renovation and expansion of the existing hospital facilities alongside the construction of a new medical office building on the campus premises.
Phase 1 - New construction for expanding the emergency department, surgery facilities, enhancing birthplace security and technology, renovating nurses' stations in the medical/surgical unit, and relocating services to pave the way for Phase 2
Phase 2 - Renovating to accommodate a fifth operating room, creating a universal care unit for procedure preparation and recovery
Phase 3 - Renovating the emergency department to allocate space specifically for behavioural health patients requiring advanced care, expanding the post-surgery recovery unit (PACU) and endoscopy procedure rooms, and revamping the emergency universal care unit
Phase 4 - Renovation of imaging department to relocate the CT scan facilities adjacent to trauma rooms.
Phase 5 - Renovating the observation universal care unit.
The anticipated planning and preparation for the five phases of hospital remodel and expansion are expected to commence in January 2024.
