Fayette Memorial Hospital nearly doubled the size of their existing facility with this three-story plus basement expansion. Relocated to the new addition were surgery, outpatient surgery, intensive care unit, medical/surgical unit, emergency department, laboratory, pharmacy, materials management, medical records, a physician’s center, and an expansion of radiology.

This project had many challenges for which Artekna developed creative solutions. The hospital campus is a city block in Connersville with very limited space available for the expansion. A unique structural system was developed in order to construct the new basement space next to the existing building. The new addition was required to match very low existing floor-to-floor heights, resulting in limited space available for modern hospital systems. Additionally, Artekna produced the construction documents for a competitive bidding process within a fast-track design schedule.
