Silver: Outstanding Health Care Project (tie)
Jordan Valley Medical Center Phase II ExpansionSubmitted by Layton Construction Co. Inc.
In response to a growing need for medical services, Jordan Valley Medical Center underwent a 97,000-sq-ft expansion in 2009. The $52-million, multi-phased project nearly doubled the size of the hospital that has been serving the southwest Salt Lake Valley for more than 25 years.
The expansion project, specifically designed for optimum patient comfort and increased efficiency, consisted of three new hospital patient floors; 10 additional critical care beds; 88 new inpatient beds; 15 new beds in the emergency department; a new, fully automated laboratory system; a redesigned outpatient cardiology center; and a Level III neonatal intensive care unit.
