The existing area planned for renovation is currently a combination of administrative and mental health space.

Strict adherence to Veterans Affairs Connecticut Healthcare Systems' (VACHS) Infection Control and Interim Life Safety Measures Policies are required throughout all phases of the work. The scope of work includes, but is not limited to, the following: Work areas require complete demolition/gutting down to the bare structure to accommodate the new floor layouts. Hazardous materials abatement of asbestos containing materials (ACM) and lead paint is required. Demolish existing interior partitions; suspended acoustical tile ceilings; flooring; doors and frames, HVAC systems - ductwork, radiators and controls; plumbing fixtures and piping; fire suppression and detection systems - piping and alarm devices; electrical systems - power, lighting, telecommunications, CATV, computer systems I/T. Provide new walls, ceilings, floors, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical upgrades as shown on the contract documents.

It shall be necessary to work around and maintain existing utilities/MEP systems that service the floors below and above the renovation areas. In some instances, the existing systems to remain (piping and ductwork) shall be altered/re-routed to accommodate the new floor plans. Special attention is required in the Mental Health Unit to provide elements that comply with the VA's Mental Health Environment of Care Checklist, which provides guidance in designing building systems and components that remove environmental features that may be used by patient to harm themselves; non-loopable, anti-ligature features have been included in the project to minimize patient suicide attempts. This project provides features that meet VA standards for the dignity, security, patient centered, and privacy of patients who utilize these facilities. The work is located at an active VA hospital with both in-patient and out-patient functions. Impact to hospital operations must be kept to a minimum and carefully coordinated with the Contracting Officer and hospital staff.
