Carteret Health Care Surgical Addition and Renovation

Client: Carteret Health Care
Architect/Engineer: The East Group
Delivery Method: CM at-Risk

The Carteret Health Care Surgical Addition and Renovation project was successfully completed thanks to the outstanding collaboration between T. A. Loving Company, the Carteret Health Care staff, and the design team, The East Group. The team overcame an incredibly aggressive schedule, executing the work in six distinct phases of construction, all while maintaining ongoing hospital operations. This achievement highlights the power of coordination, flexibility, and commitment to excellence among all project stakeholders.

Several design elements of note include a 1,000 sf OR, specialized HVAC with enhanced ability to maintain the equipment, a state-of-the-art infectious patient OR, MEP redundancy, and a focus on the coastal environment.
