Douglas T. Jacobson State Veteran's Nursing Home


Port Charlotte, FL

Back to View All Work

Client: Florida Department of Management Services / Florida Department of Veterans Affairs

Size of Project: 68,700 sq ft

Douglas T. Jacobson State Veterans Home was an AHCA permitted Florida Department of Veterans Affairs renovation project focused on hardening the facility against hurricanes and allowing uninterrupted care for residents even during severe weather. As part of the hardening process, the roofing was replaced with supporting structural improvements as needed, all exterior windows, storefronts, and doors and frames were replaced with rated assemblies. Storm drainage and runoff was improved along with new site lighting and perimeter fencing to enhance site safety and security. Interior improvements provided a renovated, redesigned and aesthetically improved reception area, as well as electronic access doors and safety railings. A brief, but intense, schedule of work was completed in each patient room during daytime hours with full Infectious Control Measures in place. Resident safety and comfort were daily focuses throughout the duration of this project. Performing work during the COVID-19 pandemic in an occupied healthcare facility provided many challenges, but thorough and careful planning, coordination and supervision resulted in a resounding success.
