Hasenstab Architects collaborated with Parkview Health on the design of an 88,000-square-foot addition that doubled the size and expanded the capabilities of their existing Parkview Warsaw Medical Center (Warsaw, Ind.), transforming it into a full-service hospital.
The addition is located to the west of the existing building and encompasses four levels. The lower level houses cardiology and pulmonology, including rehab for both specialties.
The first floor provides space for a satellite clinic for the Parkview Cancer Institute, allowing patients to receive specialized care closer to home. This 24,000-square-foot Cancer Institute includes nine infusion bays, seven exam rooms, a pharmacy, and space for a future Linear Accelerator and CT Simulator, as well as six additional exam rooms.
The project also expanded and renovated the existing lab and emergency department located on the first floor.
The second floor is occupied by surgical services, with two ORs, two procedure rooms, pre- and post-op rooms, and shell space for future ORs. Twenty-eight inpatient rooms are located on the third floor.
Half of the Medical Surgery Inpatient floor was designed with the flexibility to function as a “Pandemic Unit” if necessary. The unit contains three different banks of rooms, as well as a dedicated staff area. One bank contains dedicated negative pressure isolation rooms. The other two banks can be switched to 100% exhausted negative pressure rooms through a building automation system. The system also allows the unit to be secured from the other half of the floor.
