Sonoma Valley Hospital Emergency Department

Sonoma Valley Hospital, located in the heart of California’s wine country, provides emergency care to the City of Sonoma. At the onset of the project, the hospital was intent on building a new central plant to serve the hospital’s growing needs, but with the team’s prior experience with central plants and hospitals, it was determined that a new plant was not necessary. Instead, the Nacht & Lewis and Otto Construction team recommended an upgrade to the existing 30 year old boiler and chiller, allowing the hospital to build a new two-story, Emergency Department and cutting-edge operating suite, providing patient care and healing in a single space. In addition to the new building, the project included minor tenant improvements to the second floor of the existing west wing hospital building and enhancements of the hospital’s entrance and lobby. With the assistance of this design-build team, Sonoma Valley Hospital has begun their transition to become a healing hospital, providing emergency care while encouraging health and healing in the community.
