The Oscar G. Johnson VA Medical Center in Iron Mountain dedicated the newest addition to its facility October 28 with a ribbon cutting ceremony on their main campus.
The $12.1M project adds 12,300 square feet to the facility, renovates nearly 4,000 square feet of the existing Community Living Center, and provides 11 more single–occupancy rooms for residents. The build also provides a more homelike environment with more space for dining and recreation, as well as a barber shop and living room area.
“(The addition) will give eleven Veteran residents a new, single room in which to live while receiving care,” said Rebecca Strini, associate medical center director. “There are also four spacious and accommodating hospice rooms with walk-out garden views.”
The architect and engineer of record is Berners-Schober Associates of Green Bay, Wisc., and the general contractor for the build is Direct Steel, LCC of Crystal Lake, Illinois.
