Passavant Area Hospital is a 168-bed community hospital serving five counties. The hospital campus, approximately 328,000 s.f., underwent a thorough master planning process. The effort included an evaluation of the existing facilities regarding the need for additional space, code compliance, space utilization, infrastructure, modernization, and general patient flow. Schematic design included a new Emergency Care Center, surgery addition, remodeling of the Radiology Department, Lab Department, existing OR suite, and Cardio-pulmonary Department, and upgrade of site utilities.
The new 18-bed Emergency Care Center was designed so each room is visible from the nurses' station. All beds are monitored and multi-functional. The additional space allows for two separate entrances and also space for triage, medics, registration, dedicated lab, decontamination area, and negative pressure. It also includes a secluded family waiting room and a children's waiting area.
In order to create a “Place of Well-being” and a building that reflects the College’s teaching mission, the new Health Sciences Center at Rock Valley College provides instructional space that support both existing and emerging health industry degree and certificate programs.
Designed to meet the medical needs of the Wabash County community in collaboration with the Wabash General Hospital, the Medical Office Building offers a home for Rural Health, Pediatrics, and Specialty Providers, all under one roof.
