SCH Central Sterile Department Upgrades

South County Health was looking for a CM to manage the expansion of the Central Sterile Department to accommodate additional equipment needed. A/Z was engaged to oversee the multi-phase upgrade to this critical operation area.

The three-phase project began with removing and reconfiguring the existing architectural finishes and MEPs. This allowed the installation of the new pass-through washer and sterilization equipment. The clean side of the Central Sterile Department was expanded next, and a new AHU and the associated systems were installed. Finally, the remaining space in the ultrasound suite was converted into storage space for the department.

The safety and well-being of staff, visitors, and construction personnel were a prime consideration throughout the project. The work was performed without disruption to ongoing hospital operations and services in areas that are both sensitive and critical.
