Halifax
Medical Center’s new 180-bed Patient Tower and Emergency
Department features all private patient rooms, increased
family space including a family resource area, and four
times the space for emergency services. The 89,000-sf
emergency department is located on the tower’s ground
floor. The ED has 107 treatment rooms, including 96 modular
rooms to meet varying patient demand and needs; eight
are dedicated psychiatric rooms and three are designated
trauma resuscitation rooms. The critical care area is
on the third and fourth floors while medical surgical
beds are on floors 5-7. Storage areas and shelled space
designated for future medical/surgical units are on floors
8-10. In lieu of a second level, the first floor has a
greater floor-to-floor height to provide more flexibility
in the future. The mechanical penthouse on the third-floor
roof houses the mechanical and electrical equipment that
serves the emergency department. Located on top of the
tower is the new helistop. The new two-story central plant
was completed first so it could serve the Patient Tower/ED
throughout construction. The project was the first phase
of a 10-year master planning and redesign of Halifax Medical
Center’s main campus.
