The Big Picture

Craig Hospital provides rehabilitation for people affected by spinal cord and traumatic brain injury patients from around the world. Since Craig patients and their families can stay for three months or more, the facilities must be a comfortable, healing environment.  

The vertical addition to the existing west building and a four level horizontal addition totaled 94,000 square feet, while more than 150,000 square feet in three buildings underwent a complete renovation, resulting in 50 new private inpatient rooms, a new two-story rehabilitation center, two therapy gyms, and two rehabilitation swimming pools. 

Ingenuity in Action

A patient’s average three-month length of stay combined with TBI and  SCI patients’ increased sensitivity to light, sound, motion, and vibrations  led the team to take additional precautions to minimize patient disruption and not intrude upon the healing process for which Craig Hospital is renowned; all while operating at full bed capacity.
