Project Case Study
The new, integrated 150,000 SF Health Services Building will consolidate three county agencies: Mental Health, Health and Environment, and Aging and Human Services. The project goal is to improve service delivery, increase collaboration among different departments, and create a more efficient and effective system of care.
The building will focus on the patient/client/staff experience, featuring a universal design approach that is inclusive to all. This will include private consultation spaces, improved amenity spaces, increased daylight and nature connectivity, and welcoming features that promote wellbeing, comfort and dignity. Collaborative workspaces will be incorporated throughout to promote teamwork and communication among different departments. These amenities will be invaluable for the county’s recruitment and retention efforts, helping improve the overall workplace environment and culture. The facility is adaptable and flexible to accommodate future growth and changes in service needs.
Johnson County emerges as an innovative leader in the region when it comes to sustainable initiatives, and this project is no different with high-performing building goals. Our team will analyze a path to ILFI’s Core Green Building Certification, with potential to also meet LEED Certification and Zero-Energy. The use of high-quality materials and workmanship will be vital to ensure a long building lifespan and minimize future maintenance costs.
