January 02, 2008 - Construction Design & Engineering

Nauset Construction was selected by Radius Specialty Hospital for the renovation and conversion of the Long Term Acute Care Hospital (LTACH) at Quincy Medical Center. The 20,700 s/f, 38-bed private room project began in the spring. Nauset Construction teamed with project architect, David Dunlap Associates, as well as valued partners within the local subcontractor community.

David Longmoore, the senior vice president of Radius Specialty Hospital said, "Nauset has proven to be a very efficient and knowledgeable partner in this expansion of our operation and services. Their team brings significant value and experience to the process. One of our considerations when selecting Nauset was their portfolio of projects that involved working in occupied healthcare environments. Nauset has been exceptional meeting critical project milestones and vigilant about adhering to strict regulatory guidelines. The upgrades and renovations that were made to Quincy Medical Center will better serve the people who work and are cared for at the facility."
According to Anthony Papantonis, president of Nauset, "The Nauset team has a lot of experience working in sensitive healthcare environments and enjoys a strong relationship with Dunlap Associates and Radius. This project involved extensive renovations and upgrades to areas that are occupied by patients and hospital staff. We implemented a very detailed phasing and logistics plan to complete the work quickly, safely and with minimal disruption to the patients and staff at the facility."
The multi-phased, fast-track project included renovating and converting an entire floor within Quincy Medical Center on an aggressive two month schedule. The renovation included upgrades to both the electrical and HVAC systems. Patient rooms and common areas also received new upgrades and finishes. Nauset reconfigured existing spaces and installed new partitions, walls, ceilings, floors, doors and lighting throughout the patient and medical staff areas. New corridor upgrades including lighting and handrails were also part of construction. Other amenities include a new rehabilitation therapy area, staff kitchen, administrative offices and storage rooms.
