Turner provided preconstruction and construction services for a new Virtua Health hospital on a greenfield site in Voorhees, NJ. The project is a 675,000 sq. ft. replacement of Virtua Voorhees Hospital including a 364,000 sq. ft. inpatient pavilion. The inpatient pavilion comprises 366 beds: 168 medical and surgical, 20 ICU, 24 PCU, 46 NICU, 20 Peds and PICU, 16 ante partum, and 72 post-partum. The project includes a new 7,300 sq. ft. kitchen, 3,360 sq. ft. servery, 6,865 sq. ft. dining area, and a coffee shop. There are also five walk-in refrigerators and two walk-in freezers. The facility is digitally based, with complete electronic medical records, computerized patient rooms featuring technologies such as beds that monitor patient vital signs, and the ability to convert from a medical room to an intensive care room and back without ever having to move the patient. The hospital is designed for process efficiency, enabling clinical staff to spend more time with patients.
