ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:
CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center
KMD

The new Acute-Care Services Replacement Hospital Building (ACSRHB) in Los Angeles is the first major effort for CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center (HPMC) to broaden this vital safety net hospital’s reach to local, multicultural communities of the city. What began as a response to the state-mandated seismic retrofit has presented the facility an opportunity to further its commitment to its neighboring underserved communities. By relocating essential services like emergency, dietary, and inpatient nursing, along with birthing and neonatal care services to a new building including a full replacement of the central utility plant, HPMC is resetting its campus for the future. HPMC will maintain its overall bed capacity while creating an improved supplemental infrastructure for flexible future planning and possible expansion.

Designed by KMD Architects, this 175,000-SF project reorients the hospital’s main entry and emergency drop-off areas. The project provides a revitalized 9-Operating Room surgical suite, a modernized birthing space with Labor / Delivery / Recovery services and an adjoining 19-bassinet NICU, and an upgraded 33-bed Medical/Surgical Unit. The Emergency Department, a Level II-designated trauma center, focuses on an enhanced care environment to improve both service efficacy and patient experience.
