DSC Crews Return to Franklin General Hospital

DSC was awarded the $5.47 million bid this spring for a four-phase, two-year addition and renovation project at Franklin General Hospital in Hampton, Iowa. Crews are currently in Phase 1 which includes building a new 1,100 SF, 3-room sleep study addition onto the hospital. When near completion, the emergency department (ED) will temporarily move into this new sleep study addition while crews demo/remodel the existing ED and build an addition for a total of 4,100 SF in Phase 2. The new ED will include a new nurse’s station and will bring the total room count from three to five. Also included in this phase is the addition of a cardiac rehab area next to the ED. Once the ED can move back into their remodeled space, crews will finish the sleep study area and start on the remodel of the physical therapy space for Phases 3 and 4. This 4,000 SF space will be split in half so the hospital can continue their work while we work, adding new finishes and walls for an office, nurse’s station, and waiting room.
