Acella Construction has been selected by Outer Cape Health Services, an affiliate of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, to manage the construction of a new project on Harry Kemp Way in Provincetown.

This is the 2nd phase of the project which will add more than 6,800 square feet of new space to provide critical care at the facility. The total size of the project is approximately 16,000 square feet, which includes the new addition as well as major renovations to the current facility.

The first floor addition will house a pharmacy, optometry, behavioral health services, additional treatment rooms and dental services. The new lower level space will contain a radiology suite with enhanced digital radiography, mammography, bone density and ultrasound services. This project, which was designed by Trapani + Assoc. of Weymouth, is expected to be completed by the summer of 2012. This phase was made possible by a $3.6 million federal stimulus grant awarded in October, with $1.9 million in additional construction and the rest going for equipment.

"Acella Construction is excited to be selected to build this project," said David Dirubbo, president of Acella Construction. "We understand the critical nature of this type of work, and plan on aggressively managing the process to ensure that once completed the residents of the Lower and Outer Cape will have access to the best health care facilities in the region."
