JE Dunn: JE Dunn recently teamed up with ESa to complete the new Mercy Iowa City Rehabilitation Hospital, which provides care for patients recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and amputation. The two-story, 53,000 SF facility features 40 patient beds, along with gymnasiums outfitted for high-tech therapy devices and treatments, a dedicated brain injury unit complete with monitored rooms, specialized beds and patient lifting equipment; and separate therapy and dining spaces. Since the building is located on an undocumented fill site, JE Dunn partnered early with the owners and design partner to find the most economical and expeditious foundation system. The solution allowed the facility to be constructed on budget in 11.5 months, which was a crucial factor for Mercy. (© 2020 Cameron Campbell Integrated Studio)
RLF: RLF recently developed a new 110,500 GSF community living center prototype for the Florida Department of Veterans Affairs provides a life-affirming, nurturing environment for 120 veteran residents. The FDVA Ardie R. Copas State Veterans Nursing Home is a one-story solution divided into two distinct neighborhoods with three 20-room households embracing the values of person-centered care.

ZGF: The Heights at Mt. View, designed by ZGF, is a 7-story long-term care facility for senior/aging patients who require various levels of elevated care outside of a traditional acute care hospital.
