HRCx provided commissioning services for The Ottawa Hospital Emergency Department Ambulance Offload and Medicine Transition Unit Facility.

Working together with Cumulus Architects on this design build project, the team operated under tight deadline, codes and standard, hospital IPAC requirements and strict COVID-19 regulations to have the four season Insulated 90’ x 120’ stretched membrane structure up and running for incoming emergency department overflow. Located in the hospital’s parking lot the Ambulance Offload and Medicine Transition Unit Facility was developed to assist with patient overflow due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The structure utilizes conditioned corridors for direct access to the main building and access leading from the ambulance drop off.
