Van Zandt Medical Center facility in Altoona, Pennsylvania. This vertically expandable structure was designed to house the physical and occupational therapy wings of the VA campus. The structure incorporates space for cutting edge therapy equipment and practices and was designed to be expanded vertically with additional floors as additional capacity is required. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/533317bae4b0146effd40cac/1424795446963/Baltimore+Robotics.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Baltimore, MD; Robotics & Education Space Veterans Health Administration facilities look for designs that make the most efficient use of their limited space. With limited resources and often limited footprints, designers are pushed to get creative with space allocation. This project makes excellent use of a small space at the VA hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. A third floor mezzanine was enclosed and a vertical expansion was provided in order to provide a modern space for a new "Exercise and Robotics Research Center" and a sleek, modern, medical media and multipurpose conference room. Properly developed phasing plans allowed this construction to occur while the adjacent areas of the facility, including the cafeteria, remained in full operation. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/533317c4e4b0146effd40cb8/1424795475097/Wilmington+Specialty+Clinics+%26+Research.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Wilmington, DE; Specialty Clinics & Research for OIF/OEF This project provided a second story addition to the existing clinical facility at the Department of Veterans Affairs Wilmintgon, Delaware campus. The third story addition needed to fit harmoniously with the existing curved first and second story while not obstructing or imposing itself upon the main facility. The addition provided rooms for spinal cord injury research, clinical space for injured Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom veterans, a women's health module, and a mental health treatment area. The construction was successfully planned and occurred over occupied operational facility space without interruption to the facilities mission. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/533317cae4b0146effd40cbe/1424795489856/Martinsburg+Mental+Health.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Martinsburg, WV; Mental Health Clinic Derby Enterprises was selected by the Veterans Hospital Administration, Martinsburg, West Virginia campus to provide the design of a 35,000 square foot flexible in-patient and out-patient mental health clinic. The new facility is linked to the existing campus through an enclosed corrodor system, and contains eighty private therapy offices, ten large group therapy rooms, and ancillary administrative support spaces. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/533317d8e4b0146effd40ce5/1424795503045/Coatesville+SPD.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Coatesville, PA; SPD & Store Room Renovaiton The Sterile Processing Department (SPD) at the Veterans Health Administration's Coatesville, Pennsylvania campus required a complete renovation. Medical Sterile Processing Departments clean/sterilize, prepare, process, store and issue medical/surgical supplies and equipment for patient care. Due to the nature of the work being performed in this facility, great care was given during the design to assure that the rooms were easy to clean and sterilize, utilized the most efficient workflow layout, and provided a comfortable work environment for the staff. The project included a complete redesign of the basement level SPD including the decontamination and packaging suite, entry, changing areas, shower areas, toilet facilities and the surrounding associated rooms. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/53a302d8e4b080549e624a56/1424795513828/Perry+Point+23H.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Perry Point, MD; Renovate 19H and 23H Derby Enterprises was selected by the VA at Perry Point to provide documents to renovate the majority of the three story Building, 19H, into a Nursing Home Care Unit as well as the 4th floor of Building 23H. The project was to upgrade and retrofit all of the existing offices, exam rooms, treatment areas, patient bedrooms and the subsequent ADA compliant toilets, nurses’ stations, and waiting spaces as well as safety deficiencies and additional miscellaneous support functions. The building is circa 1910 and was in need of major upgrading per JAHCO and NFPA requirements. The 35,000 total square feet ($5.85M) of space was completely renovated in phases to allow the building to remain in full operation. The spaces were designed in accord with the DVA H-08-18 standard for planning purposes and the challenge for Derby Enterprises was to incorporate all the critically important spaces into a very restrictive building shell without sacrificing quality of care. Complete replacement of Mechanical, Plumbing, and Electrical systems was included as part of the project. In addition, the design included the replacement of a number of the windows on the building with energy efficient windows. These windows not only met the stringent new energy requirements, but also met the requirements of the Maryland State Historical Society helping to maintain the historic nature of the facility. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/533317c0e4b0146effd40cb3/1424795461286/Loch+Raven+Robotics.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Loch Raven, MD; Robotics Research Facility Derby Enterprises was selected to provide the Veterans Health Administration at Loch Raven, Maryland with a new building to house new and experimental robotics assisted rehabilitation research. The facility is a one story structure designed for future vertical expansion. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/5432fe68e4b0704170a5cd21/1424795534220/Perry+Point+Truck+Entrance.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Perry Point, MD; New Vehicle Entrance The Derby Enterprises design team was selected to provide the VA Medical Center at Perry Point Maryland with a new secured entry capable of handling increased truck traffic. The new entrance allows traffic to enter the facility without having to travel through the downtown area of the surrounding town. As physical security requirements for VA facilities are increasing, this gate set initial standards for physical security on the Perry Point campus. The design integrates VA and DOD security requirements which allow for campus wide implementation and securely monitored entrances and campus perimeter. In addition to the entrance and guard house design Derby Enterprises also provided a campus reforestation plan, and boundary survey to aid the Perry Point campus in its future development. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/54ec890fe4b0904acebdd046/1424795547001/Building+7+HVAC.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Baltimore; 7th Floor HVAC Improvements The two seventh floor penthouses at the VA Hospital in Baltimore were reaching temperatures in excess of 130°F causing unsafe working conditions, undue wear on mechanical equipment and electronics, and creating general facility maintenance issues. Derby Enterprises was selected to evaluate the severity and causes of the current situation and design a lasting solution. The design team modeled the system using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software which allowed for a detailed look at problems and appropriate solutions. The north penthouse was successfully brought to more moderate temperatures through a creative and cost effective combination of exhaust louvers and supply air applied at the correct locations. The south penthouse required both exhaust louvers and additional cooling equipment to bring the space into more moderate temperatures. The final product was electronically controllable and centrally monitored allowing for much easier maintenance and quicker response time to rising temperatures. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/54ec8e26e4b012d86527deb9/1424795577726/Atoona.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Altoona, PA; Hospice and CLC 5th Floor Renovation This project included a complete renovation of the existing fifth floor nursing unit (13,500 SF) to accommodate a “Community Living Center” and four bed hospice unit. The design included a total renovation of the existing patient rooms, patient bathrooms, nurse’s station and clinical support areas to provide a home like atmosphere for our recovering veterans. Open Hearth rooms were developed to provide areas for gathering in a quiet atmosphere. Our design team was able to maximize the use of existing large windows and the spectacular view. A separate area was designed as a cozy gathering place for watching TV or enjoying the incorporated electric fireplace. Comfortable residential seating was provided as well as several areas for wheel chairs. The plan includes an open patient kitchen area with spacious islands, accessible cabinets and kitchen appliances. This allows the patients to assist in preparing their own snacks and beverages as a part of their incorporated occupational therapy, as well as providing opportunities for veterans to conversate with one another. The patient kitchen is also designed to be open to the patient dining area allowing additional space and convenience for food catering, steam tables etc. for family style meals served on the unit. The previous 3 and four bed patient bedrooms and bathrooms were cramped, outdated, and did not meet current criteria for accessibility, bed clearances and privacy. Our new design provided eight accessible private rooms and twelve semi-private rooms including adjoining accessible bathrooms with showers. The nursing station concept was replaced with multiple alcoves for nursing staff and placed in various alcoves throughout the floor. The receptionist/clerk desk was designed to mimic fine furniture to further the homelike atmosphere of the floor, additionally an armoire was incorporated for use by the resident nurse. The Hospice unit was designed as a private stand alone unit with family kitchen, lounge and consultation area. Finishes throughout the unit provide a bright, cheery, homelike atmosphere using subtle earth tone colors, accent walls, hardwood patterned flooring, solid surface countertops, and stunning window treatments. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/54ec8f0ae4b03ce768b9a359/1424795589003/Coatesville+Bldg+2.JPG Portfolio - DVAMC Coatesville, PA; Analysis & Feasibility Study Building 2 This project involved an extensive structural, mechanical, and architectural evaluation, and subsequent report and recommendations for adding an additional floor onto building 2 at the Coatesville VAMC in Coatesville PA. The final technical report was to assess what would be required physically and financially to add an additional floor to the existing building to include conceptual renderings of a possible additional floor. The assessment included extensive building structural surveys, evaluations and calculations, mechanical investigations and assessments, electrical investigations and assessments, and plumbing investigations and assessments, and an architectural compatibility report. The report included detailed survey information, calculations and recommendations, as well as the detailed financial information required by the VAMC to construct an additional floor onto building 2. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/524c1ab2e4b0dfdf24ad38b7/533317b7e4b0146effd40c9d/54ecac69e4b02e8e0243cad9/1424797102801/Perry+Point+Bldg+360.jpg Portfolio - DVAMC Perry Point, MD; Renovate Building 360 The Derby Enterprises design team provided plans to fully renovate building 360 (36,000 sf) to accommodate medical laundry facilities, laundry receiving and distribution, a multi-use loading dock, a large mail room and reproduction area, electronic printing and meter equipment, employee locker rooms, and additional warehouse storage.
