Swedish Hospital Edmonds

Phase V

Additions and Alterations

Construction Cost: $5.9 million

This project, totaling 86,000 square feet of new construction and renovation work, includes a new outpatient care area and expands the services of radiology, pathology, physical therapy, and neurology. The existing hospital has been renovated to provide for a 23-bed critical care unit and an improved labor/ delivery and ob/gyn department. The two unfinished "shelled" floors of the existing hospital have been completed for psychiatric are and general nursing services. A special part of the program is the design of the facilities for a CT Scanner unit to augment the diagnostic services of the radiology department. The design and phasing of the work allowed the expansion to progress while maintaining the continuous operation of each department.

PET/CT Scanner

Construction Cost: $5.6 million

The diagnostic imaging department's primary function is to provide multimodality imaging services for inpatients at Swedish Hospital and for outpatients in the Edmonds, Washington medical referral community. Current services include radiography, mammography, fluoroscopy, computed tomography, ultrasound, echocardiography, MRI and nuclear medicine. The planned PETCT scanner will be a shared resource between diagnostic CT and PETCT. Projected patient volumes for PETCT are 2 per day or 10 per week. Projected patient volumes for diagnostic CT are 8 per day or 48 per week for inpatient and outpatient exams. The design concept is to create a healing environment, utilizing, as part of the interior design, colors and materials with indirect lighting and featured artwork.

CT Scanner Installation

Edmonds, WA

Construction Cost: $377,500.

The primary function of the facility is to provide radiation therapy for outpatients in the general service area of Stevens Hospital. Presently therapy is performed utilizing one linear accelerator at the PSTI facility. The present facility provides service for 25 to 30 patients per day.

Science Hall remodel, Phases I and II

Pullman, WA

Construction Cost: $4.1 million

Phase I of the project provided the infrastructure of new mechanical electrical and fire protection systems in a general science building that was built in 1939. The building houses the Departments of Biology, Botany, Genetics, Zoology and Microbiology. Three floors were added to include space for teaching laboratories, interstitial mechanical space and a 4,400 square feet, moderate and enhanced controlled greenhouse. Phase II of the project included 68,000 square feet on all floors, remodeled into new research and teaching laboratories. New aviaries were constructed at the sixth floor level, and new research greenhouses were completed within the greenhouse enclosure provided in phase I. Electrical work focused on providing enhanced communications and computer networking systems. Other improvements included upgrading the building's energy performance, one component of which was the replacement of the original wood framed windows with double-glazed aluminum-framed windows.

Phase I enlarged the existing Science Building with a 31,900 square feet addition and included remodel work that joined the new addition with two existing building wings. The project provides up-to-date facilities for many of the high hazard areas within this science research and teaching facility. The majority of the new spaces serve the Biology Department and, to various extents, the Departments of Chemistry, Geology, Physics and Botany. A 1,400 square feet greenhouse provides botany research and teaching space, along with three large teaching laboratories, all included as part of Phase I. One of these laboratories, which was designed for teaching biochemistry/biotechnology, includes a tissue culture room with highly filtered air to provide an exceptionally clean environment. Emphasis was given to provide safe and clean environments for the specialized uses of the building, while considering the need for future adaptability of the facility.

Phases II and III provide remodeling of the existing 92,000 square feet Science Building, for the Biology, Chemistry, Geology and Physics departments, teaching laboratories, offices and classrooms.
