Healthcare & Laboratory Construction
Why Manhattan Construction is Your Trusted Healthcare Partner
At Manhattan Construction Company, we know that healthcare and laboratory new construction and renovation projects require more than technical expertise—they demand a construction manager who prioritizes quality, safety, patient experience, and seamless collaboration. With a legacy of excellence and a proven track record on complex healthcare programs, we deliver results that support your mission and operational goals.
Collaborative Partnership
Manhattan Construction is more than a builder—we are your partner. We navigate complex stakeholder relationships, including hospital administrators, medical staff, and regulatory agencies, to align project goals and reduce your workload. Our transparent communication supports facility managers and provides avenues for doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff to be heard, allowing you to focus on patient care while we manage the complexities of construction.
Preconstruction Certainty
Our preconstruction team coordinates design deliverables and specializes in hospital-specific procurement strategies to ensure a smooth experience on your end. We collaborate closely to establish budgets and timelines, preventing surprises and ensuring your project is delivered on time and within budget. Our expertise in healthcare funding and approvals—including capital planning and equipment procurement—helps you achieve operational excellence.
Seamless Renovation, Minimal Disruption
We establish site-specific plans so construction workers, materials, and activities are “invisible” to occupied portions of your facility. Our infection control programs minimize dust and moisture, and our logistics ensure serene, disruption-free environments for patients and staff.
Patient Care Comes First
Your patients deserve peace, quiet, and cleanliness during their recovery. Your staff deserves a workspace where renovation activities don’t interfere with their work.
Manhattan’s approach includes:
- Isolating construction areas and scheduling heavy work during off-hours to minimize noise and dust.
- Using negative air systems and air scrubbers to contain debris.
- Timing utility tie-ins and material deliveries for after-hours and weekends.
- Maintaining uninterrupted power and essential services to occupied areas.
- Partitioning construction zones and implementing effective wayfinding and traffic control.
Safety Without Compromise
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is Critical.
In healthcare environments, IAQ can be a matter of life and death. Our team’s experience includes:
- Reducing risk of hospital-acquired infections by resolving water intrusion issues in ceilings, walls, and MEP systems.
- Installing air handling units using proven methods that reduce infection opportunities during and after construction.
- Properly ventilating and sealing ductwork to prevent fungal growth.
- Protecting air systems by sealing duct openings daily and filtering supply air once operational.
- Using negative air systems and air scrubbers to remove dust, always adhering to client Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) policies.
Life Safety is Non-Negotiable.
We help ensure your facility meets State Health Department and Joint Commission requirements, including:
- Emergency generator start times and differentiation of emergency circuits (life safety, critical care, equipment).
- Smoke evacuation systems and properly sealed penetrations.
- Implementation of Pre-Construction Risk Assessment (PCRA), ICRA, and Interim Life Safety Measures (ILSM) before construction begins.
