Seattle's Swedish Medical Center's First Hill Campus continues to perform surgeries after losing its sterilization processing department when the building in which it was located was demolished for a construction project, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.
The hospital built an interim facility for the sterilization processing department next to the existing surgical suite.
Most of the equipment was installed while the two-story, 12,000-square-foot modular facility was built at a factory in Oregon and shipped to the site on trucks.
The concrete and steel building meets the same codes as a permanent structure.
