Site work, new construction and renovation of a medical facility in Clermont, Florida. Working plans call for the construction of a 205,000-square-foot medical facility; for the renovation of a medical facility; and for site work for a medical facility.

The project consists of a new 550-bed mental health treatment facility (approximately 175,000 GSF) inside a currently operating correctional institution that integrates group therapy rooms, individual therapy rooms, recreational space, medical consultation rooms, nursing stations, and multi use office/workstation space into secure inmate housing areas. It is envisioned that a dedicated professional office space will be provided in a new adjacent building (approximately 30,000 GSF) that will also serve as the new main control building. The project will also include new infirmary/dental space in the new mental health treatment facility and may include modifications to existing food service capacity. The Department endeavors to improve existing staffing efficiencies and treatment outcomes by bringing the treatment services to the inmates, as opposed to transporting inmates out of the secured housing units to the treatment services. Mental health treatment services will be coordinated with security operations to the highest degree possible through line-of-sight characteristics, controlled access features, and audio/visual technologies. The Department intends to explore non-traditional prison construction features that lend themselves to improved staffing efficiencies and optimized building operation and maintenance while maintaining the safety and security of inmates and staff. The project will include the demolition of all 12 existing structures on the north side of the compound. Connections between the new building will need to accommodate emergency medical transports through the front sally port.
