SSR professionals offer a full range of engineering system designs and consulting services required by today’s complex facilities. Our team focuses on providing system solutions that are operationally flexible, efficient, and sustainable. With over 50 years of experience in the healthcare industry, we understand the intrinsic differences in the functional requirements of behavioral health facilities. Different facility types, including psych substance abuse, memory care, neuro/trauma rehab, stroke care, and other modalities related to mental health, must be approached with specific consideration given to the facility’s end use. For instance, in some facilities, the design of the infrastructure systems need to provide safety for the patients served while also locating the devices and equipment where maintenance access is possible.
