A Lean Approach to a 24-bed Med-Surg Unit
Extensive collaboration and Lean practices kept this occupied renovation ahead of schedule while minimizing disruption to ongoing hospital operations. This 20,000 SF renovation to Newton-Wellesley Hospital’s East Wing’s 5th floor transformed the space into a high-tech med-surg unit. The 24 new patient rooms feature Bluetooth technology, Smart Glass partitions for patient privacy, and state-of-the-art headwalls. In the heart of the unit is a new nurse call station; surrounded by patient beds, exam rooms, two isolated rooms, and two negative pressure rooms for highly contagious patients. Today, the 5 East Wing offers patients an elevated experience in a transformed and comforting environment.

Meet Gabriela: she began her journey at Wise as an Assistant Project Manager. She studied for her bachelor’s degree in civil engineering in Brazil and relocated to the U.S. with a strong ambition to join the construction industry. Through her dedication and integrity to both clients and her team, she was promoted to Project Manager, a role in which she has continued to thrive. Gabriela has gained experience across all three of our market sectors, and now focuses on Healthcare projects, working with clients like Boston Children’s Hospital and Atrius Health.
Recently, Gabriela was featured in Boston Globe Magazine as part of Wise Construction’s ranking on their Top Places to Work list, where she shared her perspective on construction. She said, “It’s not just about the cold, dry planning and building, but the end product, which can change people’s lives, especially when it’s a healthcare project.”
