University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital

Minneapolis, MN

"Kraus-Anderson has completed this large healthcare project that involves construction of a new 6-story, 96-bed patient tower plus penthouse (230,000 s.f.); OR/ED expansion (30,000 s.f.); existing space renovation (50,000 s.f.); and 3 stories of underground parking for 180 cars. The 7-story Amplatz Children’s Hospital patient tower includes kidney dialysis, a pediatric intensive care unit, a floor for bone marrow transplants, general patient rooms, linear accelerator, sedation rooms, support services, a coffee shop, a gift shop and a mechanical penthouse. A new linking structure has been built between the campus’s existing East Building and the new Amplatz Children’s Hospital. The link contains new OR and ED Departments as well as a Doctor’s Lounge. The new OR Department is aimed primarily at children and contains six new Operating Rooms. Four of them will be utilized right away; the other two are shelled out for future use. Each OR has a different function including one for head injuries and one for neurosurgery. The department also has a large sterile supply area and a sterilization room. The ED Department will serve both children and adults. There is a walk-in Emergency Entrance, and an Ambulance Entrance. There is also a triage room. The ambulance garage has a break room for EMT Technicians, an MRI room, and a Decontamination Room with showers for victims of exposure to radiation or hazardous chemical spills. The water from these showers goes into a special disposal tank. The ER patient area features a long admitting area desk and four types of private emergency treatment rooms. There is a special psychiatric lock-up room, trauma rooms for the most pressing cases, isolation rooms for people admitted with infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, and regular emergency treatment rooms. The 50,000 s.f. remodeling of a portion of the existing East Building involves a complete renovation of radiology, cardiovascular services, and PACU Pre/Post Services."
