Elmhurst Hospital Master Plan

Queens, NY

Elmhurst Hospital Center’s total ambulatory visits totaled more than 600,000 per year. To improve the quality and efficiency of services, a master plan was developed that reorganized the allocation of space and investigated the potential for development of new space.

The study focused on 1) projected future needs for ambulatory care services; 2) services that could be accommodated within existing space; 3) reorganizing the allocation of space for the projected services; 4) development of potential new space; 5) efficiencies to be gained by redistribution of existing space; 6) potential of sharing services with other institutions; and 7) development options, including projected costs.

Ellana provided cost estimating services for master planning that allows for expansion and upgrades. ROM estimates were developed for scenarios that included new hospital buildings, a new automated parking garage, renovations, and site improvements at an existing multi-level hospital.

SUNY Downstate Medical Center - HVAC Upgrades to Bronchoscopy Suite

Brooklyn, NY

The project comprises modification to the existing X-Ray for use as Bronchoscopy lab. The scope of this project is to provide adequate ventilation to the room to bring it up to code. Existing ventilation is recirculating air from the room back to central air handling unit which is not allowed by the Health Code. The proposed ventilation systems will eliminate recirculation of air from the X-ray room and will exhaust room air to outside. New roof-top mounted unit is proposed for the project with associated fan coil units, new distribution, and air duct, and exhaust. Even though that project is not big in scale it presented number of challenges such as working in the L&D unit above the X-Ray room to provide access to the main service and maintaining operations in the surrounding labs and offices.

The estimates are scheduled to be prepared at each design milestone. The initial estimate is complete and the project is now in the design development phase.

Specific challenges included the breadth of options that our team explored, as well as phasing and scheduling constraints. The plan included various different building and program types: surgical suites, intensive care units, regular hospital facilities, medical teaching and lab environments, offices, libraries, and support space. More detailed considerations within the plan included connectors between principal buildings, the conversion of deep auditorium spaces into flat-floor classrooms, and above and below ground parking garages that utilize state-of-the-art parking lifts.
