The official "shakedown" "shake-down" ceremony is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. just outside the entrance to Rehabilitation. Anyone Any-one interested is invited to attend. The demolition will make room for a new four-story South building. build-ing. "This is a big moment in UVRMC history," said Ron Jones, region operations officer for construction. con-struction. "These were the original origi-nal sections of the hospital and they've served the community well." For the past several months, offices have been moving out of the area and construction crews have been working on asbestos removal. Each of the wings has also been detached from the rest of the hospital. During the shakedown, shake-down, a large claw-like machine will grab onto the structure.. ..and literally shake the walls down. These original portions of the hospital first became a reality in 1939 when Utah Valley Hospital was built through a $240,000 EVENTS FROM UVSC Parts Locating FOREIGN & DOMESTIC We Buy & Sell Salvaged Vehicles 225-5586 Toll Free 1 -300-624-7062 1190N.1600West Orem (Geneva Road) ';w 1 h j; i shakedown x grant from the Commonwealth Fund of New York City and $90,000 in funds raised by the community. It opened on September Septem-ber 10 with 55 beds, 12 bassinets and 38 physicians on the medical staff. "The hospital was built because of the hard work and generous donations from the community. This tradition continues today with our hospital Chapel and Family Guest House, which were both built largely from community commu-nity donations, and there will be future opportunities for the community com-munity to support this hospital through giving," said Mary Ann Young, administrator of UVRMC. Geneva Steel came to Utah Valley Val-ley in the mid-1940s and brought with it a population explosion. The need for expansion at the hospital was evident and construction con-struction began on a new wing in 1949, after two additional community com-munity fund-raising efforts. After opening in 1951, the hospital had 115 beds and 36 bassinets. Just as the original sections -the C, D and E wings of UVRMC -were built to meet the needs of a growing population, they are now being torn down now to make way for another building that will accomplish ac-complish the same purpose. The new South building at UVRMC will provide space for a new outpatient out-patient Cardiology Clinic, a new in-patient Psychology unit, Administration Ad-ministration and a variety of support sup-port services. The approximately 105,000 square-foot facility will not only meet many of the hospital's space needs but also be more cost effective than trying to maintain the older portions. "In order to care for the community, com-munity, we need to have modern and efficient facilities," says Ron. "The new South building will help us make sure our patients receive top quality patient care." The demolition of the C, D and E wings is scheduled to take place between now and the middle of May. Construction of the new South Building will begin the middle of June, and the project is expected to take approximately 14 months to complete. It represents the continuation of a renovation and replacement project at the hospital that began in 1997. The South building and other new additions on the hospital campus are examples of how the hospital meets its not-for-profit mission of putting dollars back into the community. com-munity.
