Project Futurecare is much more than just a forward looking project moniker. FutureCare is Overlake Medical Center & Clinics' sustained business mission to provide the best healthcare possible to a growing eastside community. Overlake selected GLY to help them plan and build this exceptional six-year campus modernization and redevelopment project following the tenets of a fully integrated team delivery.

Although the new five-story inpatient tower is the most notable addition to the campus, FutureCare is really a complex logistics project that changes campus circulation, selectively demolishes major parts of existing buildings, enhances wayfinding, expands surgical services, and creates capacities for future expansions, such as behavioral health. The renewal project spans from 2017 to 2023 and occurs in six key phases: I) Operating Room Expansion, II) Site Improvements + Basement Excavation/Construction, III) New East Tower Construction, IV) Department Relocations, V) Old East Tower Demolition, and VI) Entry Drive Configuration + Construction of New East to West Tower Connector Link.

FutureCare provides patients and staff with access to two additional state-of-the-art surgical suites, an expanded Behavioral Health Unit, and a five-story tower with a new Childbirth Center, two levels of private patient rooms, lab, and pharmacy. The renewal also creates optimal staff, patient, guest and vehicle traffic flow through both new and existing portions of the campus.
