This 60,000 square foot health and rehab building, located on the main
campus of Columbine Health Systems, serves as an interim care facility
for patients leaving the hospital and transitioning back home. This facility
is one of few rehab centers in the area to offer a full service commercial
kitchen, beauty / hair styling facility, physical therapy & rehab
exercise rooms. Also, each patient room is fully equipped with exterior
windows, private bathroom, medical gasses, and nurse call systems. Challenging
the construction team was the addition of a state-of-the-art patient lift
system in all 90 patient rooms. This advanced system allows for patient
security and mobility in multiple directions anywhere in their room. The
addition was an afterthought during construction so it had to be phased
in through extensive retrofit without delaying the completion date.
