The State of Maryland is using a modular solution to address the pressing need for additional intensive care units in areas hardest hit by COVID-19. On May 26, Adventist HealthCare Fort Washington Medical Center opened a new 7,000-sq-ft, 16-unit critical care facility, built from modular units designed by HGA and preassembled by The Boldt Co. at its Appleton, Wis., facility.
Another similar HGA/Boldt modular facility is planned for the University of Maryland Prince Georges Hospital Center in Cheverly. Both hospitals are located in Prince Georges County, which has the highest number of confirmed COVID-19 cases of any county in the state.
