Project Details
Abonmarche Byce provided Architectural, Interior Design, and Engineering services for the Helping Hands Wellness Center tenant fit-out of the existing space located at 310 N. Rose Street.
Our team first conducted an assessment of the suite, associated mechanical and electrical infrastructure, and a facility survey to document the existing condition of the building and its systems. The Helping Hands Wellness Center required a space for two exam rooms, an x-ray room, 2 counseling rooms, a main entrance and waiting area with reception and check-in/out area, medical records space, practitioner workstations, restrooms, phlebotomist station, lab space, storage for medical supplies and medications, office space and meeting rooms. This project also consisted of code compliance upgrades to the current facility to meet code standards for the use of occupancy change.
This new Wellness Center in Downtown Kalamazoo will serve at-risk community members with both scheduled and walk-in appointments, alleviating the demand for lower patient acuity placed in the emergency department.
