Prebys Cardiovascular Institute, 9888 Genesee Avenue, La Jolla, CA |
SAN DIEGO, CA
– McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., the nation’s leading healthcare builder,
has completed construction of the new 383,000-square-foot Prebys Cardiovascular Institute and adjacent 26,000-square-foot
central energy plant on the Scripps
Memorial Hospital La Jolla campus, located at 9888 Genesee Ave. in La
Jolla, Calif.
As the
design-assist general contractor, McCarthy was retained by Scripps Health to
perform preconstruction services for the $456 million Prebys Cardiovascular
Institute before breaking ground in May 2011.
HOK Architects was
the project architect. Jacobs
Engineering Group Inc. served as the construction management firm on behalf of
Scripps. The health system will begin
treating patients at the new facility in mid March.
“This is an
exciting achievement for us,” said Scripps Health Corporate Vice President,
Construction and Facilities, Bruce
Rainey. “The new Prebys
Cardiovascular Institute reflects the most advanced healthcare design
principles together with remarkably high standards of construction.
“ It stands as a
model not only for future Scripps facilities, but also for specialized heart
care facilities across the country.”
The Prebys
Cardiovascular Institute is the cornerstone of a 25-year master plan unveiled
in November 2010 that is transforming the Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla
campus.
The new Prebys
Cardiovascular Institute will be a destination hospital for cardiac care on the
West Coast. The facility will provide cardiovascular patients with the most
advanced treatment options available, while also serving as a center for
medical research, clinical trials and graduate medical education.
