Norwalk Hospital

SLAM was selected by Nuvance Health-Norwalk Hospital to create a master plan and carefully curate departmental moves to bring this aspirational new patient bed pavilion project to life. The footprint of the new bed pavilion will be built in place of the existing Tracey and Community buildings on the hospital campus, all while the existing hospital remains 100% operational through a complex series of phases and relocations.

The new inpatient bed pavilion will connect to the existing hospital’s Main Tower up through the 7^th floor.  Four of the floors are dedicated to clinical uses, while the first floor provides an expanded main lobby to provide visitor access to the new pavilion.  This will include the 3rd floor ICU & PCU featuring 28 beds, 5th and 6th floor medical surgical nursing units featuring 60 total beds, and the 7th floor women and infants services spanning across both new and existing buildings. The 7th floor functions will feature a robust renovation to an existing building connecting floor with 6 Labor delivery rooms and 2 c-section operating rooms. Additionally the new construction scope on this floor includes a 17 bed postpartum unit, well-baby nursery, and NICU space for 9 infants. Through new construction and renovation this project will encompass over 241,000 SF of project scope and redefine patient care at Norwalk Hospital.
