Scope Of Work

Care One Concord

When you consider the scope of work for a particular project, that’s much easier said than done. A recent renovation our firm undertook at Concord Health Care Center in Concord, MA, provides a sample of how these projects have to be thoughtfully coordinated and executed. The Concord Health Care Center is a post acute-care facility offering rehabilitation services. Additionally, they provide long-term care and a state-of-the-art memory care program for residents suffering from Alzheimer’s and dementia. The $4.3 million renovation project involved reallocation of space, new designs to accommodate new programs, and updated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing. Here’s the breakdown of the entire renovation:

     Sampling of Projects

Remodeling of all common areas on the second and third floors (includes flooring, paint, lighting, lineal wall covering)

Renovation of 25 resident rooms in the short-term rehabilitation wing

Lobby renovation that included an ADA-compliant reception desk.

Exterior front entrance renovation.

What makes a project like this more challenging is that it involves work with the front entrance and a lobby. For any building, these areas are critical both for people who work there and guests. When it’s a post acute-care facility, it takes on even greater importance, as it’s the first point of contact for loved ones going to visit a sick family member or friend or if you are bringing somebody in for treatment. So when a renovation of an entrance or reception desk occurs, you have to plan accordingly to minimize downtime.
