The Weed Army Community Hospital replacement hospital, scheduled for completion in the fall of 2016 was conceived to improve the medical care provided to Soldiers, military families, and retirees in the Fort Irwin community. No less important, the hospital will also support brigade-size units that rotate in and out regularly for training at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin’s largest tenant. Since 2001 rotating units have been trained at the NTC for tours to Afghanistan and Iraq and are today being prepared for deployments to potential international trouble spots, peace-keeping missions and in support of allies around the globe. The installation conducts about 10 training rotations per year. The new facility will effectively be able to accommodate any scenario – emergency or otherwise – in support of the NTCs approximately 10 training rotations per year (more than 50,000 visiting service members) as well as maintaining its commitments to the Fort Irwin Garrison population. This mission-critical project includes the design of a 21,600 square foot replacement hospital, clinic alterations, utility plant building, ambulance shelter, and helipad. Combining state-of-the-art facility design with innovative energy conservation and generation, the e facility will be the nation’s first carbon-neutral hospital, and it sets a precedent for future military medical facilities.
