Expansion of a Leading Rehabilitation Center in San Francisco
The Laguna Honda Hospital is one of the country’s largest skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities located in San Francisco, CA serving seniors and adults with disabilities. The facility specializes in providing individualized, patient-focused long-term care, rehabilitation, hospice, and Alzheimer’s and HIV/AIDs care for 765 residents in 13 programs.
The 150-year-old hospital was recently expanded and extensively renovated under a 10-year-long plan that constructed three new state-of-the-art buildings. The large project consisted of 500,000 sq. ft. of new construction and 150,000 sq. ft. of renovations. Care was taken to stay true to some of the historical components of the hospital and the surrounding community as well as retaining a natural environment on the 62-acre campus. Conco was brought in to provide concrete services for the new construction.
The healthcare facility was the first hospital in California to be awarded LEED Silver certification. Construction manager was the Turner Construction Company and the architects were Anshen+Allen Architects and Gordon H Chong & Partners. The engineer was Rutherford & Chekene Consulting Engineers.
The state-of-the-art facility now offers a home-like atmosphere comprised of units in which 15 patients reside. Each unit has a common living area where patients can socialize, and each floor is made up of 4 units that join together to form neighborhoods to create a community of sorts. Given that the average stay at the facility is 17 months, it is essential for patience to have a comfortable environment.
The new Rehabilitation Center contains two therapy pools and two gymnasiums. The Esplanade is an indoor style boulevard that offers services such as “a café, a community theatre, two art studios, a multi-media library with a fireplace, barber and beauty shops, a tropical bird aviary, and a cafeteria with indoor and outdoor seating.”*
