Doors Installed at BRMC

Bradford Regional Medical Center’s David Thrun (left) of Telecommunications and Norm Strotman, assistant director of Plant Services, check the sensors of the newly installed double doors inside the Interstate Parkway lobby. As a safety feature, the Emergency Department will have the capability to lock down its unit doors at 8 p.m. each day so people cannot enter or exit without being accompanied by a BRMC employee. These locking doors will start being used in early August when the fourth and final phase of BRMC’s $3.5 million Emergency Department expansion and redesign are complete. This project is part of the hospital’s “Building The Future” campus improvement campaign. Phase I involved building the $11.5 million Outpatient Services Center, which opened in January 2007.
