Hospital ...
From page one
Miller estimates the move will take more than six months. The pharmacy and general stores, including laundry, medical supply and some kitchen supplies, will be the first to open.
There has been only one construction delay—the bricklayers union held up production during a three-month strike two years ago.
"There isn't much brick in the building, just enough to hold us up." Miller said.
construction on the seven-level building, each level larger than a football field, is 90 percent complete. Crews will be working on the upper floors when the move to the basement begins next month. Patients are told to the new building and early next year.
SOME OF the older Med Center structures still will be used, giving the Med Center a 782-bed capacity. The new hospital will have 353 beds. Miller said.
Each patient in the new hospital, except those in recovery and some intensive care units, will have a private room with a bath and shower.
neu Memorial also will offer a service that few other hospitals do, Miller said. The Surgicenter, a quick approach to minor surgery, is located near the major operating rooms.
The Surgicenter will allow patients requiring minor surgery to be admitted in the morning, undergo surgery and leave the hospital that afternoon.
Miller mentioned some "personal touches" the hospital would have.
THE LIGHTING in patient hallways will be accessed in the walls so glare will be cut down.
"A patient on his way to or from surgery on a stretched waist won't have be half-blinded or fully conscious."
Patient meal schedules at the hospital will change and become more flexible with the introduction of a new meal preparation system.
Meals will be prepared, frozen and stored in a huge freezer capable of storing a two-week supply of food for patients. Individual meals can be prepared by filling and put in smaller freezers where they will be kept until the patient is ready to eat. The food then can be warmed in a microwave.
Besides the innovations designed for patients, the hospital contains some specially designed equipment.
ONE OF the concepts makes the structure
appear taller than its seven floors. That is because the building actually has 12 floors.
The purpose of the spaces, above the ceilings of each level, is to centralize all electrical, plumbing and other mechanical systems in one area between each floor. The opposite direction is used in most industrial spaces and is one of only a few in the country, according to Miller.
"The interstitial design allows for great flexibility in arranging patient and work environments."
Because the mechanical systems for each floor are in the space above the ceiling, there are no permanent ducts in the walls. Each floor tap into the mechanical system through the interstitial space. If an area needs to be enlarged or rearranged, pipes can be disconnected and walls removed before interfacing with the permanent mechanical systems.
ANOTHER FEATURE, is that all the heavy machinery involved with operating the building is contained on one floor in the middle of the building.
The six stairwells in the hospital are the structural backones of the building. They are constructed with steel beams weighing 708 pounds a linear foot.
The beams are attached to steel plates six inches thick and eight inches square that have been placed on bedrock. The plates are kept from shifting by huge, 12-foot-long bolts, which are driven into the bedrock underneath the building.
"I think the building is here to stay," Miller said.
WASHINGTON (AP)—A jury of eight women and four men was chosen Tuesday to hear the corruption trial of Rep. Charles C. Daggs, Jr., the senior black member of
Jury chosen to hear trial
Eleven black jurors and one white juror will serve in the U.S. District Court case in which Diggs, D-Mich., is charged with receiving kickbacks from three congressional staffers and hiring three officers to handle his personal and business affairs.
The 35-count indictment returned in March charged Diggs with mail fraud and libel.
McCollum remodeling plan seen as nearly completed
The cost of the remodeling, estimated at $71,000, was funded by the McCollums Hall Foundation.
appropriated the money from contract fees charged to McCollum residents.
Plans are nearly completed for a thorough remodeling of all floor lobbies in McColm Hall, Sue Summ, assistant resident director at McColm, said yesterday.
The remodeling will include new carpeting and furniture, new partition between quiet and social areas and game tables.
Planning for the remodeling begin last year. A committee of McColm residents will finish the plans and submit them for approval to the housing director, in mid-October, Smith said.
She said she thought the remodeling would be started during the Christmas holiday.
