With a mission to continue to serve the community with the greatest care and love by transforming health care, OSF needed to expand their existing GI Lab on the second floor of the Milestone building to serve a growing number of patients needing GI procedures. This project built out approximately 9,500 sf of shell space and renovated the existing PACU to expand the total PACU bed count from four to six. Four new procedure rooms were added with custom casework, anesthesia columns, and overhead equipment booms. The project also added thirteen Prep and Recovery rooms with custom head wall units, two nurse stations with nourishment counters, three single user toilet rooms, a physician work room, multiple storage rooms, and a scope decontamination, sterilization and storage suite.

NEEDS:

• More rooms for GI procedures

• Additional PACU beds

• Construct spaces adjacent to sensitive patients without shutting down areas of the hospital

SOLUTIONS: 

• Renovated shell space to have 13 prep/recovery GI rooms and support spaces

• Reconfigured and renovated the existing PACU to allow for 2 additional beds

• Completed construction in coordination with the hospital to allow the NICU on the floor above & the St. Jude Clinic on floor below to remain open and fully functional.
