PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Since 1970, the Purcell Municipal Hospital has been serving Purcell, Oklahoma, and the surrounding communities. In 2020, the hospital broke ground on a new 30,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art hospital. The hospital includes procedure rooms, CT scans, ultrasound, endoscopy, x-ray, nuclear medicine, and laboratory spaces. The Purcell Municipal Hospital also includes an attached emergency department and an inpatient wing.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

  • Provided design for a green-build, replacement hospital.
  • Utilizes a unique, albeit challenging approach that maximizes the mechanical space by using specialty rooftop equipment. Minimizing mechanical space reduces the overall cost from a very tight budget.
  • Designed multiple isolation rooms to provide the hospital flexibility in combating current and future contagious, respiratory infections.
  • Designed to meet the adopted version of Facility Guidelines Institute (FGI), as well as a previous FGI version to account for reimbursement requirements by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS).
  • Facility includes enhanced filtration, as well as areas with humidification as required by FGI.
  • Designed telecommunications systems and telecommunications rooms throughout the hospital for terminating cabling and mounting network equipment.
  • Designed audiovisual systems for video presentation equipment, content collaboration equipment, sound reinforcement, digital signage displays, videoconferencing equipment, and sound masking systems for speech privacy.
  • Designed an electronic video surveillance system for entrance and exit doors and strategic interior and exterior locations.
  • Designed video intercom system for the main entrance door or other strategic locations to integrate with the access control and video surveillance systems, as well as the phone system, as required.
