Physical Therapy Dept./Conference Center
JRA was selected to provide architectural services for the design of a new
physical therapy department in the existing conference center area of the Annex
building at RRMC. This included a large gymnasium area, tech workstations with
full view of the gym, evaluation and speech therapy rooms, plus offices, charting,
waiting/reception and support spaces for staff. Concurrently we designed the
renovation of the existing physical therapy suite into a new conference center,
with meeting rooms to accommodate groups of various sizes, new restrooms and
mechanical spaces, and new finishes in other areas. Currently, phase 1, the
conversion of a hydro therapy room and nurses’ office into one of the meeting
rooms, has been completed.
