Abrazo Cave Creek Hospital, a 35,000-sf hospital located in Cave Creek, Ariz., has completed construction.

The new hospital features a 13-bed emergency department; an operating room and a three-bed pre-op/post-anesthesia care unit; eight inpatient rooms for overnight stays; an imaging suite for x-ray, ultrasound, and CT scans; and a laboratory. The emergency room will be open year-round, 24/7.

“Demand for micro hospitals in the Southwest has continued to grow, and our ability to quickly construct and deliver a hospital like this one enables providers to meet their patients’ medical needs closer to home,” said Scott Salyer, Regional Manager for Adolfson & Peterson Construction.

Construction on the hospital began in January 2020 and it is expected to open for patient care after completing equipment and supply delivery and setup in mid-2021. E4H Architecture designed the project and Adolfson & Peterson Construction was the general contractor.

MEP design considerations for rural hospitals

Rural hospitals present unique opportunities and challenges for healthcare facility operators. Oftentimes, the infrastructure and building systems have not been updated for years and require significant improvements in order to meet today’s modern medical demands. Additionally, as these smaller, more remote hospitals are acquired by larger regional and national healthcare systems, the first step by new ownership is often to update and rehabilitate the building. But how can this be done thoughtfully, economically, and efficiently in ways that allow the engineering and facility staff to adapt to the changes? And how can the updates accurately reflect the specific needs of rural communities and the afflictions with which these areas most commonly face?
