A transitional care unit remains fully operational during the MacNeal Hospital rehab project, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website. The Berwyn, Ill., hospital upgraded its interiors and mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems.
The 11,250-square-foot remodel of the Acute Care Rehabilitation Center involved an interior demolition and complete rebuild.
The new suite offers 13 patient rooms, two nurse’s stations, an employee break room and a room for secure storage of medications. The suite also features a fully equipped rehabilitation gym and a model apartment where patients can practice living independently.
