    Healthcare Renovations

    ICRA-certified commercial construction for occupied hospitals, medical offices, and surgery centers.

    Building Around Patient Care

    Healthcare construction requires a level of precision, hygiene, and risk-mitigation that typical commercial contractors cannot provide. When lives are on the line on the other side of a partition wall, you need a specialized healthcare renovation contractor.

    • Infection Control: Deploying negative air machines, HEPA filtration, and rigid anterooms to ensure zero dust escapes into active patient wings.
    • Specialized MEP Integration: Installing medical gas lines, specialized HVAC returns, and robust power systems required for life-saving equipment.
    • Behavioral Health Standards: Expert installation of anti-ligature fixtures and impact-resistant materials designed for safety.

    Medical Offices

    Efficient tenant buildouts for private practices, urgent care clinics, and specialty ambulatory centers.

    ICRA Certified

    Our teams are heavily trained in Infection Control Risk Assessment protocols.

    Zero Disruption Planning

    We orchestrate massive utility tie-ins and structural modifications during off-hours to keep your surgical schedules functional.

    Proof

    Proven on a live ICRA project

    For UC Health, RCG delivered a dual-suite physicians' office buildout inside an occupied medical facility — selective demolition, MEP rough-in, and active infection-control containment — with both suites turned over turnkey, on schedule.

    What ICRA Class Does Your Project Need?

    ICRA (Infection Control Risk Assessment) matches containment rigor to patient risk. In practice:

    • Class I–II — non-invasive or small-scale work in low-risk areas: dust control, work-area isolation, immediate cleanup.
    • Class III — significant work in or near patient-care areas: rigid barriers, negative air pressure with HEPA filtration, sealed penetrations, controlled entry.
    • Class IV — major work near high-risk populations (surgery, oncology, ICU): full anteroom protocols, continuous pressure monitoring, ILSM (Interim Life Safety Measures) coordination, and infection-control sign-off at every phase gate.

    Your infection-control committee sets the class; our job is to price it honestly and execute it without shortcuts. If a contractor's bid doesn't state the ICRA class and its containment scope as line items, the bid is incomplete — that's the first thing your ICP will ask for.

    Our Process, Built Around Care Delivery

    1. Pre-planning with your infection-control and facilities teams. ICRA classification, ILSM plan, phasing map, and after-hours schedule agreed before mobilization — in writing, in your committee's format.
    2. Containment first. Barriers built, negative air established and verified, pathways protected — before demolition starts, not after the first complaint.
    3. Phased execution. Utility tie-ins and high-impact work in planned off-hours windows; daily pressure checks logged; adjacent practices coordinated continuously so schedules hold on both sides of the wall.
    4. Verified turnover. Terminal clean, inspection with your ICP, punch, C of O — and a 3D tour of the finished space for your records and your leadership.

    Healthcare Renovation FAQs

    Every superintendent and foreperson managing our healthcare renovation projects in Cincinnati is formally ICRA certified. We strictly follow ASHE (American Society for Healthcare Engineering) guidelines to contain dust, mitigate noise, and prevent the spread of airborne pathogens during construction.

    Yes, our primary expertise is conducting major structural, MEP, and cosmetic renovations inside active medical facilities and hospitals without disrupting patient care or surgical operations.

    Absolutely. We routinely coordinate the precise structural blocking and dedicated electrical required for X-Ray, MRI, surgical lighting, and heavy medical boom installations.

    Containment, negative air, HEPA filtration, and after-hours phasing add real cost — typically a modest percentage of project total, scaled to class. What it removes is the seven-figure risk of a construction-linked infection event and a shut-down unit. We itemize ICRA scope in every healthcare bid so the compliance cost is visible, not buried.

    Yes — and that's the most common case. We bring the phasing templates, the ILSM checklists, and the committee-meeting patience. Your teams keep treating patients; the construction adapts to the care schedule, never the reverse.
