The project consists of the design and construction of a Replacement Hospital for the Bassett Army Community Hospital at Fort Wainwright, Alaska. This facility will provide outpatient and inpatient care to members of the 1st Brigade, 6th Infantry Division (Light) and other tenants of Fort Wainwright. The new Hospital of approximately 250,000 sf will replace an outmoded 300-bed facility, originally built in 1951, that is no longer functionally or economically viable.
The project is envisioned"... to develop a facility as the core of innovative, integrated and cost effective Health Care System that will enhance total force readiness, promote a healthy community, provide quality care, optimize health and be flexible to meet changing health care needs well into the 21st century".
The Replacement Hospital will include services for: Primary Care, Emergency Services, Specialty Care, Physical Therapy, Dental Care, Inpatient Nursing (22-beds), Labor and Delivery (10-LDRP Beds) and Surgical Services as well as related ancillary, education, administrative and service functions.
