The renovation project at Parkridge West Hospital involved transforming the medical and surgical unit on the second floor into a state-of-the-art 28-bed behavioral health unit. This new unit includes a treatment mall and staff support spaces, covering approximately 15,000 square feet. The construction cost for this significant upgrade was estimated at $2,300,000. The goal of this renovation was to create a modern, efficient, and supportive environment for both patients and staff, enhancing the overall quality of care provided at the hospital.

During the renovation’s design and construction phases, a thorough examination of the existing exterior envelope was conducted. This examination aimed to identify and document any air and water infiltration issues. Necessary repairs were then carried out to address these issues, ensuring the building’s exterior was secure and well-maintained. These steps were crucial in maintaining the integrity of the building and providing a safe, comfortable environment for the new behavioral health unit.
