Providence Park Hospital
Novi, Michigan
 

This new 500,000 SF tertiary care hospital features 200 beds, with capacity for 68 additional beds. The new building is connected to the existing ambulatory center with a pedestrian bridge. The hospital design utilized some services provided in the existing and remodeled Ambulatory, Diagnostic and Treatment Center, and as a result, the new construction will amount to about 1,700 SF per bed, which is well below the expected range of 2,400 to 2,800 SF per bed for modern tertiary care hospitals.

The Emergency Department is designed for 55,000 annual visits with expansion capability for a total of 68,000 visits. All patient rooms are single occupancy; 30 are "Super ICU" capable. The typical medical/surgical nursing units are in pods of 34 beds each and are acuity adaptable. The 24-room Intervention Center, located next to the surgery suite, is the principal location for short stay patients.

The project has many sustainable features. The plumbing fixtures in the public toilet rooms have automatic controls and low water consumption to minimize the potable water consumption. The mechanical systems have variable air volume, variable speed pumping, variable speed cooling towers, variable speed chillers, air economizer and high efficiency boiler burners to provide maximum energy efficiency. The generator plant has multiple generators which can back up both normal and emergency power for the entire hospital and features a battery-free UPS system.
