East Tennessee Children’s Hospital in Knoxville is planning a 245,000-square-foot surgery and NICU expansion. The project’s goal is to strengthen the hospital’s regional recognition and brand by improving operations and elevating the quality of pediatric care, according to an article on the Healthcare Design website.
As CMS deadlines approach and renovation projects accelerate, healthcare facility managers must understand how NFPA 101, state fire codes and sprinkler design strategies intersect.
Research and education are intentionally embedded in the hospital’s design, with dedicated spaces for scientific collaboration, clinical investigation and training.
The completed tenant improvement includes approximately 100,000 square feet of improved space across two buildings and represents an investment of $65 million.
