Kern Psychiatric Health Facility

Our design-build project endeavors to craft purpose-driven spaces tailored for behavioral health and recovery requirements. This undertaking involves the creation of two distinct suites: an Adult Suite and an Adolescent Suite, each meticulously designed to cater to the unique needs of their respective demographics. The Adult Suite encompasses 17 beds, alongside essential facilities such as seclusion rooms, nursing stations, community and activity areas, outdoor courtyards, clinical and faculty workspaces, as well as a fully equipped commercial kitchen. Similarly, the Adolescent Suite features 17 beds, a seclusion room, nurse stations, communal spaces, minor and adolescent courtyards, playground equipment, and dedicated clinical and faculty workspaces.
