Imaging Master Plan and Implementation

Working closely with the Imaging Department at Strong Memorial Hospital and researching current trends and practices, Dwyer completed a master plan of over 55,000 GSF of the ground floor of the hospital in order to consolidate the disjointed Imaging Department.

​

The key piece to this plan was to create an Interventional Radiology suite. At a time where the FGI guidelines lacked clear requirements and direction on the layout, flow, and environmental controls for Interventional Radiology suites, the team worked with the department to create a plan that was more closely modeled after an Operating Room suite. The private pre- and post-procedure areas are closely modeled after a traditional PACU, and the procedure rooms themselves are arranged around a clean core, with separate patient and staff entrances. While the multi-phase project began in 2015 and is slated to be completed in 2023, when complete it will be a state-of-the-art facility, due to the forward-thinking efforts of the Hospital and the design team.
