The Center for Joint Replacement building opened in June 2012. The facility is an innovatively designed building that houses our new Institute for Joint Restoration and Research and the Washington Joint Restoration Clinic.
Features include all-private patient rooms and expansive therapy and common areas. The building's overall design integrates properties of natural light and "green" features to support a healthy, healing environment for patients.
The facility includes a semi-circular outdoor rehabilitation garden and patio area, with a range of walking surfaces and elevations. This area is specifically designed to give patients an opportunity to practice and build confidence about navigating their surroundings outside the Hospital.
