Dimensions - Summer 2010 - 7
The expansion allowed the center to be reconfigured into three zones connected by a linear concourse: a patient zone, a diagnostic and treatment zone, and a zone that includes the emergency room, trauma center, and outpatient services. The hospital’s orientation was altered by relocating the main entrance to the west side of the campus. A new, well-marked campus loop road has improved vehicular circulation and wayfinding, and a rooftop helipad allows for direct elevator access to the trauma center. Previously, patients were transported by ambulance from a remote helipad to the emergency department elsewhere on the site. With Dewberry providing an extensive array of civil engineering services, as well as environmental, traffic, and geotechnical engineering and surveying, several siterelated challenges were addressed. The team designed the relocation of a half-mile segment of Neptune’s stormwater flood control culvert to accommodate the new buildings and implemented numerous water quality upgrades to reduce total suspended solids (TSS) in environmentally sensitive downstream areas. Dewberry and Jersey Shore representatives worked closely with the local Shark River Coalition to devise an effective stormwater management plan, avoiding construction delays while ensuring a high level of water quality in site discharge.
A new campus loop road links facilities and provides enhanced safety for pedestrians.
Jersey Shore officials and the architect, WHR Architects, Inc., have been notified that the facility has received a LEED®-Gold certification, which makes it the third hospital in the nation to achieve that level, and the first on the East Coast. “Our green initiatives are directly connected to our healing mission,” says Jersey Shore University Medical Center President Steven G. Littleson. “We are looking to be more responsible as an organization, recognizing that our decisions have a profound impact on the people we care for and the surrounding environment.”
