WALDORF, MD — Hamilton Pacific Chamberlain (HPC), a general contractor headquartered in Waldorf, Maryland, recently completed the construction of an isolation unit within the Baltimore VAMC. The project, which was part of a federal undertaking to combat the spread of COVID-19, was an emergency project that was completed within 35 days of project development.

The isolation unit will also act as an intensive care unit for veterans battling the novel coronavirus. The unit will enable medical experts to safely treat patients without risking the spread of the virus to veterans attending the VAMC for routine treatments. HPC has taken the necessary protective measures to ensure its team are protected during the renovation process through the use of N95 face masks and various other forms of PPE.

"We are honored to have built this for our veterans," said Griffin Hamilton, HPC's President. "To have a safe place specifically for the treatment of this virus will undoubtedly help so many people in these very uncertain times. Our team has worked tirelessly to ensure the timely completion of this very important project."

In addition to the Baltimore COVID unit, HPC has recently been awarded multiple federal contracts for national cemeteries and VAMCs across the country. Hamilton Pacific Chamberlain is a federal government contractor that focuses on renovations, demolition, and new construction of government and military structures.
