Renovation and Addition
Intensive Care Unit and Healing Garden
Lowell General Hospital
Gil and Marilyn Campbell Intensive Care Unit
A former Emergency Department was transformed into a new, state-of-the-art 11 bed ICU that will eventually be expanded with the renovation of another ICU directly above.
A 3,000 SF corridor addition wraps the perimeter of the renovated space to provide a new family zone with waiting and lounge areas. Family members can access patient rooms without penetrating the clinical core, removing a source of conflict that allows staff to concentrate on providing patient care. Utilizing 3D virtual walkthroughs and Building Information Modelling, LWDA demonstrated to the Department of Public Health that the patient rooms maintained views of nature through a new curtain wall exterior that allows daylight to penetrate through the visitor corridor and deep into patient rooms.
A new Healing Garden is located in the former Emergency Department dropoff and features walking paths, seating areas and a contemplative labyrinth.
