Lawrence General Hospital in Lawrence, Mass., is planning a $72 million modernization project that will include inpatient renovations, a 42,250-square-foot surgical building expansion and renovation and infrastructure upgrades, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
The new surgical facility will include six new operating rooms, including a swing catheterization laboratory and interventional radiology room. Each operating room will accommodate the latest technology in imaging and robotics.
The inpatient renovations will create nine single-patient rooms with a family area that can provide for overnight guests, and a new inpatient unit with single and semi-private rooms that will have updated interior design and enhanced infection-control protections.
