One of the five largest of its kind in the state of Florida, The Eugene M. and Christine E. Lynn Cancer Institute at the Boca Raton Community Hospital is a spectacle. The massive, 98,000-square-foot, $73 million facility opened its doors during the Fall of 2008 and is on pace to treat more than 3,000 patients each year. Not only is this facility one of the most technologically advanced cancer centers in the nation, it also offers multimodality care, where a patient has an entire medical team in one location.

This new, state-of-the-art facility is also home to new, state-of-the-art signage. EGI designed a unique signage system for the Lynn Cancer Institute, featuring interior signs that were custom
fabricated of acrylic and architectural resins infused with hundreds of pieces of bamboo. EGI designed and manufactured the entire sign system, everything from aluminum interior and exterior dimensional letters to chemically welded interior ADA signage and interchangeable directories.

This signage system is the precursor to what will become EGI’s new line of Green signs. Check out the gallery below to get a sneak peek of what’s to come.

EGI just finished an install at the James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital in Tampa, Fla. The renovated wing is now home to the Spinal Cord Injury Center, a 30 bed wing offering long-term residence for veterans who need 24-hour nursing care.

According to a recent story by ABC Action News in Tampa, the new F Wing is a state of the art facility.

The new wing includes mobile computerized medical records, high-tech lifting machines for patients in every room and suck and puff technology that allows even ventilator dependent quadriplegics to move around, control their own TV and lights.

And in terms of signage, EGI installed all the signage for wing. Some signs have four windows to be modified by the hospital staff while others are solely chemically welded door signs.
